Drywall & Joint Compound Removal in Surrey, BC
Drywall & Joint Compound Asbestos Removal in Surrey
Drywall and joint compound asbestos removal in Surrey covers walls and ceilings built before 1990, where the drywall mud and texture frequently test positive for asbestos. We remove walls and ceilings under sealed containment with HEPA-filtered air, so the fibres stay contained and your renovation can move ahead safely.
It surprises people, but the drywall mud and texture in pre-1990 homes is one of the most common places asbestos turns up. Because the compound was used over entire walls and ceilings, demoing it without containment can contaminate a whole house fast.
We test the compound first, then remove walls and ceilings under proper containment so your reno or addition stays safe and on track.
What's included
- Testing of joint compound and texture
- Sealed containment of the work area
- HEPA-filtered negative air during demolition
- Controlled removal of drywall and texture
- Full HEPA clean-up
- Certified disposal and documentation
- Clearance testing on request
When you need this service
Opening walls in a reno
Any time you're removing or moving walls in an older home, the drywall mud should be tested before demo.
Additions and layout changes
Bigger projects that touch lots of wall and ceiling area need abatement planned in before the trades arrive.
Water or fire damage repair
Damaged drywall in older homes should be tested and removed safely rather than patched over.
