We had been planning a basement renovation for a couple of years and had our contractor ready to start. As part of his due diligence he had the popcorn ceiling in the basement tested for asbestos as he had seen this before.
I called various companies and was disappointed to learn that many of the removal companies also did their own testing. Called up Greenstream and described my project and he told me that they performed no testing as it is a conflict of interest. He passed along two or three environmental testing companies and I retained the services of one of them for the testing. Unfortunately, the results came back positive and I once again called back Ighor to provide an onsite estimate. He arrived at the agreed upon date and time. We went through the project, he was a very thorough in his description of the work to be performed, what type of abatement it was, how it would impact our family etc. I did have three other quotes and found that Greenstream’s quote was the most thorough thorough, and I felt at ease dealing with them. On the day the job was to start, the crew arrived on time, Ighor introduced me to the site supervisor, we all walked through the project once again. They provided me a copy of the Notice of Project which was filed as per the regulation, a WSIB certificate in my name and also a copy of their Insurance policy naming me on their policy also. I was quite impressed! I pretty much turned over the keys to them and advised them of who would be providing the air testing and inspection. They took care of the rest. I hope no-one out there needs to undertake a type 3 asbestos project, but if you do, do your homework and give Greenstream a Call. Thanks guys.
