How to deal with hazardous building materials for an upcoming renovation?

Once connected with Safetech, one of our trained professionals will guide you through the processes required to ensure your project is completed safely and in accordance with regulatory requirements.

Project-specific assessments concentrate on those building materials, equipment and machinery that will be, or has the potential to be disturbed during the project.  Project drawings and specifications are often provided for review prior to completing a site walkthrough of the project area.  Representative samples of suspect materials are retrieved at the time of the site walkthrough, which are then submitted to a third party accredited laboratory for analysis.

Once analytical results are received, an assessment report is provided that identifies the location and quantity of hazardous building materials in the project area and provides recommendations for safe work practices based on current regulations, standards and guidelines.  This report is then provided to contractors as part of the project bidding/tendering process.  This process ensures that project costs are known up-front and prevents project delays.

When the project starts, the contractor will have the necessary information to ensure proper precautionary measures are being taken.  At the same time, Safetech can arrange to complete the required inspection and testing to document safe completion of the work, giving people reoccupying the space peace of mind, knowing that you did everything properly.
