Understanding Types of Asbestos Removal in Ottawa
There are different levels when it comes to dealing with asbestos removal in the Ottawa region, depending on the severity of your asbestos problem.
Low Risk
Minor non-destructive work involving materials in good condition. Ideal for small removals like isolated ceiling tiles or wrap around HVAC duct work..
Moderate Risk
Applies to projects involving friable materials or more disruptive work, like removing drywall with asbestos compounds or using glove bags for insulation on pipes.
High Risk
Used for large-scale abatement involving demolition, crumbling insulation, or materials not removed prior to 1986. Requires advanced containment and air filtration procedures.
All abatement work is completed by licensed professionals following Ontario’s Occupational Health and Safety Act.

Why Asbestos Is a Health Concern
Inhaling asbestos fibers can cause:
- Mesothelioma: a rare, aggressive cancer affecting the lining of the lungs
- Asbestosis: chronic lung inflammation leading to scarring
- Lung cancer: higher risk in smokers exposed to asbestos
Symptoms often don’t appear until years after exposure. That’s why timely testing and safe removal are crucial for your long-term health and peace of mind.
