If you have found asbestos in your home, it’s important not to panic and to contact Abri Spec’s asbestos experts. An assessment will be carried out, along with the steps to be taken. If necessary, samples will be taken for analysis. An appointment can then be made to remove or encapsulate the asbestos in accordance with current safety standards. It is important not to attempt to clean or handle the materials yourself, and to wait for our specialized team. Such contaminants are dangerous to handle without equipment.

There are several signs that may indicate possible mould contamination in your home, such as mould stains on walls, ceilings or upholstery, a musty odour (earthy smell), excessive humidity in the air, and water leaks or infiltration in the house. If you suspect mould contamination, you’ll need to take immediate steps to remedy the situation.

You can find out if the air quality in your home is healthy by performing indoor air quality tests. These tests can measure the presence of common pollutants such as mould, fine particles, and carbon monoxide. You can also watch for physical signs such as foul odours, high humidity, or symptoms of respiratory problems or allergies in occupants. An indoor air quality professional can help you determine whether your home’s air quality is healthy.
