Finding asbestos doesn’t stop your project – it simply requires proper management or removal by certified professionals. If asbestos is identified, our consultants provide detailed abatement planning and contractor specifications for safe handling. Depending on material condition and project scope, options include professional removal, encapsulation, or careful work-around procedures. Many renovation projects successfully proceed with proper asbestos management, often at lower cost than expected. Contractors experienced in asbestos handling can incorporate removal into project timelines. The key is knowing what you’re dealing with before starting work – surprises during construction cause the most expensive delays and safety hazards.
