2. Are your asbestos removal services safe and certified?
Absolutely. Our team is WorkSafeBC certified, ensuring the highest standards of safety in all our services.

3. Why is asbestos removal important?
Asbestos is a hazardous material found in many older homes and buildings and poses serious health risks. Inhaling asbestos fibers can lead to devastating diseases like mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis. Removing asbestos promptly and professionally is essential to protect the health of occupants, workers, and anyone who enters the property. Delaying removal increases the risk of fiber exposure, especially during renovations or demolition.
4. What are the signs of mould in a property?
Common signs of mould in a property include:
- Visible discolouration — black, green, or white patches on walls, ceilings, or floors
- Musty or damp odours — a persistent earthy smell even after cleaning
- Water stains or bubbling paint — signs of moisture intrusion behind surfaces
- Allergy-like symptoms — recurring coughing, sneezing, or respiratory irritation among occupants
- Condensation or humidity issues — especially in basements, bathrooms, and poorly ventilated areas
- Warped or deteriorating surfaces — wood, drywall, or carpeting that appears swollen or damaged
If you notice any of these signs, it’s important to arrange a professional inspection before the problem spreads.
5. Do you offer both residential and commercial services?
Yes. Foralis Environmental serves a wide range of sectors including residential, commercial, healthcare, industrial and energy, infrastructure, and institutional clients. Whether you’re a homeowner preparing for a renovation or a business managing a large-scale remediation project, our team has the expertise and capacity to assist.
6. How long does asbestos or mould removal take?
The timeline depends on the size of the property, the extent of contamination, and the type of materials involved. A small residential asbestos or mould removal project may be completed in one to two days, while larger commercial or multi-room projects can take several days to a week or more. Our team conducts thorough risk assessments and HMBI Inspection Surveys before beginning any project, which helps us give you an accurate timeline and ensures the work is completed efficiently without cutting corners on safety.
7. What safety measures do you follow during projects?
Our certified professionals implement detailed asbestos abatement procedures and make safety their top priority, ensuring that all regulations are strictly followed and that both staff and everyone involved are fully protected throughout the process. We use specialized isolation and decontamination procedures to prevent airborne fibers and minimize health risks during both testing and removal phases. All waste is disposed of in accordance with environmental regulations.

Foralis Environmental’s commitment to safety and excellence makes them a trusted partner for expert asbestos abatement solutions.

10. How do I know if my property has asbestos?
Asbestos cannot be identified by sight alone — it must be professionally tested. However, properties built before the 1990s are more likely to contain asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) in areas such as floor tiles, ceiling tiles, insulation, roofing, pipe lagging, and textured coatings. Foralis Environmental conducts comprehensive HMBI Inspection Surveys to assess potential hazards, ensuring precision and accuracy in asbestos testing. If your property is older or you’re planning renovations, we strongly recommend scheduling a professional inspection before any work begins to ensure safety and regulatory compliance.
