When Do You Need Professional Hazmat Removal Services from Rockridge Industrial Services Inc?
Contact us while dealing with these materials:
1. Asbestos
Asbestos exposure can cause serious respiratory conditions such as lung cancer mesothelioma and asbestosis. Hence, asbestos has been banned in many countries. Asbestos is usually found in materials such as electrical breakers, cement sheeting, wiring, floor tiles and roof shingles. If your home is built before 1992, you should have it tested for asbestos.
At Rockridge Industrial Services Inc, we maintain stringent standards to make sure our clients are provided with reliable and safe abatement procedures. After a thorough visual inspection, samples are taken to the lab to determine the presence of asbestos. If asbestos is detected in your house, our specialists recommend a process known as abatement for complete removal of asbestos. During asbestos removal, the materials might be coated to prevent asbestos fibres from getting airborne. Our technicians are well aware of the dangers caused by these fibres and use proper protective gear during asbestos removal. After the hazmat is disposed of at a specialized facility, your area is again cleaned and tested for any contamination.
2. Mould
Mould typically grows in humid, dark places and also can be found in basements, air ducts and surfaces with seepage issues. Mould removal is necessary as extended exposure to it can be life-threatening. Mould spores when inhaled can cause serious health issues such as allergic reactions, chronic sinus infections and lung disease. Mould can also cause structural problems and stain your walls and ceilings.
Call Rockridge Industrial Services Inc to get rid of mould growth in your house. We determine the source of your mould problem and develop a removal plan accordingly. We use professional equipment such as HEPA air scrubbers and vacuums for mould removal. Our technicians wear proper safety gear during the process and the area is contained with plastic sheets to avoid dispersing spores into the air.
3. Contaminated Soil
The contaminated soil layer is excavated for remediation and the new soil layer is tested for contamination. Contaminated soil is then treated using multiple processes (including flushing) to eliminate contaminants from soil.
4. Lead Paint
To remove lead paint, we scrape the old surface with a heat gun or by hand. We also use a filtered vacuum to remove lead-based paints from your residence.
