What to know about Asbestos removal

Asbestos removal, also called asbestos abatement, is the controlled removal, sealing or enclosure of building materials that contain asbestos. Health Canada notes that before 1990, asbestos was mainly used for insulating buildings and homes, and the Quebec government says products containing asbestos were used by the construction industry mainly between 1930 and 1990. Many older houses, duplexes and triplexes across Canada fall in that window.

What changes in Quebec City

We list 6 areas inside Quebec City on their own pages, because a service area is drawn by each pro and does not always reach the whole city. For asbestos removal, the part of town matters as much as the city.

Quebec City is the principal city of a wider area we list under the name Quebec City Region, which takes in 9 other places. A pro's service area might be Quebec City on its own or the whole of it — we match on the one they gave us.

Quebec City publishes its own building-permit page, and it is linked below beside the rules that apply in Quebec. Whether asbestos removal needs a permit is answered there, not in a quote.

The rules we can source for this work in Quebec cover general contracting and renovation. They are set out below with the page each one came from — the regulator's words, not ours.

Asbestos removal costs in Quebec City

Prices depend on the details of your project. We only publish price ranges when they’re backed by real LokalMatch quote data or reliable sources. Until then, here’s what usually changes the price:

  • Interior or exterior approach
  • Length of foundation wall to excavate or treat
  • Depth, soil conditions and access for equipment
  • Crack repair, underpinning or other structural work
  • Weeping tile, sump pumps and backwater valves
  • Restoring landscaping, driveways or finished basements
  • Testing and safe removal of mould or asbestos, where needed

How to choose asbestos abatement contractors in Quebec City

  • Choose a contractor who finds the source of the water before recommending a fix, whether that's grading, eavestroughs, cracks or drainage.
  • Ask them to explain the difference between interior and exterior waterproofing for your home, and why they recommend one.
  • For foundation cracks that are wide, growing or uneven, ask whether a structural engineer should assess them first.
  • For mould, asbestos or radon, hire professionals qualified for that specific work, and don't disturb suspect materials yourself.
  • Get a written quote that lists excavation, membranes, weeping tile, sump pumps and restoration of landscaping or finishes.

Questions to ask asbestos abatement contractors before you hire

  • Where do you think the water is coming from, and how did you confirm it?
  • Do you recommend interior or exterior waterproofing for my home, and why?
  • Should a structural engineer look at these cracks or this wall?
  • Does this work need a permit from my municipality?
  • Is your warranty transferable if I sell the house, and what does it cover?
  • How will you restore the landscaping, driveway or basement finishes afterwards?
  • If you find mould or asbestos, how will it be handled and by whom?

Asbestos removal permits in Quebec City

Some asbestos removal work needs a permit or has to meet local bylaws. Rules vary by municipality, so ask your pro whether a permit is needed and who will apply for it — and check with your city or town if you’re unsure.

Common asbestos removal questions

Is LokalMatch free for homeowners?

Yes. You never pay LokalMatch to request quotes or talk to pros. Professionals pay a fee to connect with homeowners whose projects fit their business.

How many pros will contact me?

We introduce you to a small number of relevant pros — usually no more than three — so you’re not flooded with calls. If fewer pros are available in your area, we’ll tell you instead of promising quotes we can’t deliver.

Do I have to hire someone?

No. Requesting quotes doesn’t commit you to anything. Compare your options and hire only if someone is the right fit.
