What Roofing Materials are Asbestos-Containing

Asbestos inspections uncover the mineral in many building materials in both residential and commercial properties. In the mid to late 20th century, around 1985, asbestos was being mined at a high rate and used in construction. Today, asbestos abatement is still required in houses and buildings throughout the city where asbestos testing identifies instances of the mineral. 

Asbestos was used in various materials and areas, such as attic insulation, drywall, stucco, tiles, and pipe wrap. It was also used in roofing because of its many desirable properties, primarily its affordability, availability, durability, and fire resistance. If you suspect that there is asbestos in the building materials of your commercial or residential property, contact Inch By Inch Inspections today.

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.
