What is negative pressure? It refers to creating a controlled pressure imbalance between the work area and the surrounding environment. By maintaining negative pressure, any potential gaps in the containment cause air to be drawn into the work area, preventing asbestos fibers released during demolition from escaping.
Negative Pressure.
The initial step in any asbestos abatement project is the meticulous containment of the work area. Our team employs a process we refer to as 'arts and crafts,' where we skillfully construct an airtight enclosure using polyethylene sheets and Tuck-Tape. This enclosure isolates the project area, ensuring no asbestos fibers escape.
Containment.
The asbestos waste bags we use are designed for maximum safety. These bags are 6 mil thick and are colored yellow with clear hazardous material warning labels. This ensures that anyone handling the bags is immediately aware of their contents and the associated risks.

The first stage, known as the dirty room, is where workers remove and dispose of their single-use, non-porous suits in asbestos waste bags. Next, they proceed to the shower room, equipped with water, soap, and towels to thoroughly cleanse any asbestos fibers that may have adhered to their masks, boots, hands, or bodies. The final stage, the clean room, is where workers can safely remove their masks and change back into their regular clothing.
Decontamination.
The specialized personal protective equipment (PPE) required for each worker plays a crucial role in safeguarding both the individuals on-site and those outside the project area. The most vital piece of PPE is the respirator. Apogee equips workers with two types of respirators: the commonly used half-face respirator, which employs two P-100 filters to purify the air, and the powered air-purifying respirator (PAPR), which covers the entire face and uses an air pump to automatically filter and supply clean air.

Testimonials
Rex, Ottawa
We have recommended Apogee for 3 projects. All were completed on time and at agreed price. They were responsive, polite, as well as cleaned up properly.
Chris, Nepean
These guys are super professional, efficient, quiet, and thorough. Can't ask for more. They ripped out my ceiling, as asbestos was in the stipple. Great job. Would recommend.
Jeremy, Ottawa
We have used Apogee on a few of our renovation jobs now. Each time they are a pleasure to deal with. Top grades for communication, cleanliness, and finished results.
