Licensed asbestos testing, assessment, and safe removal for residential and commercial properties throughout Manitoba. All work complies with Manitoba Regulation 217/2006 and is fully documented for permits, insurance, and future disclosure.
Our Scope
How We Work
Every water and fire restoration project follows the same disciplined process, no shortcuts, no guesswork. You always know what stage we are at and what comes next.
We answer 24/7. A certified technician is dispatched immediately to assess and stabilise the situation.
Response within hours - not days.
We document the damage with moisture mapping, air testing as needed, and photographic evidence to build a clear scope of work.
Thorough documentation protects your insurance claim.
We stop the damage from spreading. Containment barriers, water extraction, and emergency structural support are put in place immediately.
Containment prevents cross-contamination and secondary damage.
Industrial drying equipment, specialised remediation protocols, and certified cleaning methods restore affected areas to safe, dry conditions.
All work follows IICRC S500, S520, and provincial standards.
We verify that moisture levels, air quality, and material conditions meet clearance standards before any reconstruction begins.
Independent clearance testing on request.
Final inspection, complete documentation package, and photo record delivered to you and your insurer. Your property is returned to pre-loss condition.
Full paper trail for your insurer and peace of mind.
Process follows IICRC S500, S520, and S700 standards as applicable to each project type.
Why It Matters
Manitoba Regulation 217/2006 under the Workplace Safety and Health Act mandates licensed contractors for asbestos work above defined thresholds. Non-compliant removal exposes owners and contractors to significant liability.
Asbestos fibres are microscopic - no one can identify ACMs visually. Accredited laboratory analysis of collected samples is the only reliable method, and is required before any regulated abatement work begins.
Intact asbestos in good condition poses relatively low risk. The danger arises when materials are drilled, cut, sanded, or broken - releasing microscopic fibres that, when inhaled, can cause mesothelioma and other serious diseases decades later.
Asbestos waste must be disposed of at licensed facilities following provincial guidelines. Improper disposal - including regular landfill disposal - carries significant regulatory fines.
Post-abatement air testing by qualified personnel confirms fibre levels have returned to background before occupants return. This testing is required by regulation for Type 3 asbestos work.
Identifying asbestos before a renovation begins allows it to be managed or removed in a planned, lower-cost way - rather than as an emergency stop-work discovery mid-project.
Project Spotlight
Asbestos hides in dozens of building materials. Here is a look at the range of asbestos-containing materials our certified crews safely remove across Winnipeg and Manitoba - every job tested first, contained, and air-cleared before re-occupancy.
MechanicalOld boilers, furnaces, ductwork, and pipes in pre-1990 Winnipeg buildings were routinely wrapped in asbestos-containing insulation. Decades of heat cycling leaves it brittle, so the slightest disturbance can release fibres into the mechanical room and beyond.
We remove boiler and pipe insulation under full containment, with HEPA filtration and the Type 3 procedures Manitoba regulations require - never as a quick scrape on the side of another job.
Asbestos was added to plaster, drywall, and the joint compound that ties walls together. That means a single renovation can disturb asbestos across an entire room, not just one patch.
Before any wall comes down we confirm what is present with asbestos testing, then remove affected materials inside sealed, negative-air containment.
Walls
Relief Restorations is locally owned and based in Winnipeg. We provide asbestos abatement in winnipeg, mb to homeowners and businesses across Winnipeg and surrounding Manitoba communities, with 24/7 emergency response and certified, documented work on every project.
