How Long Does Asbestos Stay in the Air?

Asbestos fibres are invisible to the naked eye. They may remain suspended in the air for hours or even days, depending on various factors such as air circulation and activity levels in the area. Once these fibres become airborne, they can be inhaled and may cause serious health issues. If you suspect asbestos in your home or workplace, seek professional help immediately. Services such as asbestos removal in Toronto ensure that asbestos is identified and removed safely, protecting your health and property.

What Our Clients Say About Us

Hiring a construction contractor to renovate my house for the first time, I was not familiar with any of the DSS-related requirements.  So, it was quite reassuring to find someone like Tony who is trustworthy and knowledgeable. I also needed a quick turnaround for the completed DSS report and Tony delivered (on time, as promised).  In short, Tony was great to deal with. I would recommend him to anyone, anytime.   

Richard, Toronto

Tony did an excellent job with inspecting the house. He was very knowledgable in his field and thorough with his inspection. He carefully and patiently looked at both the exterior and interior of the building. He pointed out the deficiencies, what the risks are and how to rectify them. He answered all of our questions and made sure that we understood them. He offered his expertise and help if we needed.
