Find an Abatement Contractor in Ottawa
Tell us what you found or suspect and we will send your request to local Ottawa abatement contractors, who reply to you by email.
How It Works
- Tell us what you need: asbestos testing or removal, vermiculite, a mould inspection or cleanup, lead paint, a designated substance survey or clearance testing
- We send your request on to local abatement contractors in the Ottawa Construction Network directory
- They reply to you by email to arrange a visit, sampling if needed, and a written quote
- Compare quotes, ask questions and decide if it is the right fit, with no obligation
What to Check Before You Hire
- Which Type (1, 2 or 3) the asbestos work falls under in O. Reg. 278/05, in writing (there is no company licence for asbestos abatement in Ontario)
- For Type 3 work: who notifies the Ministry of Labour inspector, the workers' and supervisor's asbestos abatement training, and who does the clearance air test
- A current WSIB clearance, which you can search online
- A written contract with the scope, price and dates; if you sign at home, your 10-day cancellation right under the Consumer Protection Act, 2002
- Where the asbestos waste is going, and that the disposal site has agreed to accept it
- We do not screen or verify contractors, so check these yourself before you sign

If Something Was Disturbed If a material you suspect contains asbestos has been cut, sanded or broken, stop the work and don't disturb it further. Health Canada advises having suspect material tested by a professional, and hiring a qualified asbestos removal specialist if it contains asbestos.
