Why

Why Do Cambridge Homes Have Asbestos?

Cambridge was formed from the communities of Galt, Preston, and Hespeler, each with distinct housing ages. Galt and Preston have many historic homes from the late 1800s and early 1900s. These older properties often contain significant asbestos materials.

Post-war developments in all three areas added thousands of homes containing asbestos insulation, floor tiles, and textured ceilings. If your Cambridge home was built before 1990, professional testing is recommended before any renovation work.

Our Services

What Asbestos Materials Do We Remove in Cambridge?

We remove all asbestos-containing materials from Cambridge properties. This includes vermiculite insulation, plaster coatings, floor tiles, pipe wrap, and cement siding.

Cambridge’s industrial history means many homes near former factories may have additional exposure. We conduct thorough inspections to identify all asbestos sources and plan safe removal.

Asbestos Inspection and Lab Testing

We take samples from walls, ceilings, insulation, flooring, and pipes in your Cambridge property. A certified lab confirms if asbestos is present. You get clear test results before any asbestos removal work begins.

Asbestos testing in Cambridge costs $300 to $600 for most homes. The price depends on how many samples are needed. Testing identifies what materials contain asbestos and helps plan removal accurately.

Does Cambridge require asbestos testing for renovations?

How long does asbestos removal take in Cambridge?

Small jobs take 1 to 2 days. A typical Cambridge home takes 3 to 5 days for complete removal. Larger or more complex projects may take 1 to 2 weeks.
