Asbestos was widely used in Canadian construction materials until the late 1980s. If your home or building was built before 1990, there’s a good chance it contains asbestos in certain materials. While asbestos isn’t visible to the naked eye, there are warning signs and situations where it may be present.
If your property was built or renovated between the 1940s and late 1980s, asbestos was commonly used in:
- Drywall joint compound and plaster
- Ceiling textures (like “popcorn” ceilings)
- Floor tiles and adhesives
- Pipe and duct insulation
- Vermiculite attic insulation
- Roofing, shingles, and siding
If older walls, ceilings, or flooring are cracking, flaking, or breaking down, asbestos fibers may become airborne, which is when they’re most dangerous.
If you’re planning to cut, sand, or demolish older materials without testing, you risk disturbing asbestos. Always have a professional inspection before starting renovations.
Fine, lingering dust around old insulation, drywall, or ceiling tiles can indicate disturbed asbestos-containing materials (ACMs).
Older boiler rooms or basements often used asbestos insulation around pipes, ducts, or furnaces for heat resistance.
