ASBESTOS TESTING FOR BUSINESSES AND HOMES IN COQUITLAM
Due to its heat resistance and thermal insulation, asbestos was often used in the production of pipe thermal insulation and shingles on roofs until the 1990s. However, as asbestos begins to decompose, toxic fibres are released into the atmosphere. Inhalation of these fibres can cause adverse health effects such as lung cancer, lung tissue damage, and other serious respiratory problems.
Even though you appear to be in good health right now, asbestos exposure may not have had any effect on you. Years may pass before its effects start to show.
Most properties built before the 1990s contain asbestos to some degree.To find out if your residential or commercial facility contains these harmful fibres, contact BC Hazmat to arrange an asbestos test in Coquitlam by one of your AHERA-certified inspectors.
