Flooding & Water Damage
Calgary’s ASTRA Restorations restores all kinds of storm damage. We make your property safe from the mould and water damage storms cause long after the storm has ended.
Storm damage is not limited to wind and hail. Water from rain, river flooding, or sewer seepage can damage your commercial property.
Different kinds of water pose different risks. Flooding sewer and river water not only risk your foundation or basement but contain contaminants and chemicals that directly impact occupant health.
While rainwater itself poses no specific harm to your health, if it enters your building through a damaged roof, it will weaken the integrity of that building’s interior. If unattended to, water damage can cause mould, which itself causes severe health problems.
Mould grows inside the cavities of walls, under floorboards, and in crevices. It will thrive anywhere moisture lingers, including hard-to-see and hard-to-reach areas. On the other hand, mould can be obvious, spreading across water-damaged surfaces like drywall.
Having your home inspected after water or moisture damage is essential to the long-term health of your home, commercial, or industrial property, as well as to the occupants of your building—your family, tenants, employees, or pets.
Identifying specific kinds of water damage and the risks they pose is crucial to properly restoring water-damaged property. ASTRA Restorations knows how to restore your property and prevent further risk to health and safety.
Calgary’s ASTRA Restorations has the specific training and specialty equipment to protect your property and health. Trust us to restore your home or business so you can relax once again.

Project Description:
This project was performed with moderate-risk protocols (AAAM Section 5.3, with modifications by a registered occupational hygienist tailored to site conditions and to keep risk of asbestos exposures as low as possible). Excavators removed soil around a 120-foot long transite pipe. Once the pipe was fully exposed, ASTRA marked break areas for easier transportation to the City of Calgary’s asbestos-waste-disposal site.
ASTRA conducted a cleanup of the pipe’s outer surface and applied sealant glue to prevent fibres from being released into the air during cutting. The pipe was broken at set locations to minimize dust. Barriers kept unprotected workers away from the cutting zone. ASTRA Restorations’ registered occupational hygienist monitored the project and generated a final clearance report within one week of project completion.

Project Description:
ASTRA Restoration completed abatement of asbestos-containing exterior stucco of 28 townhouses owned by the Calgary Housing Corporation. We removed the stucco with moderate-risk protocols (AAAM 5.3). ASTRA created partial containments of less than 100 square feet in size, which we fitted with HEPA-filtered-negative-air units. Removal activity was performed mostly by hand tools. Collected abatement material was double bagged and disposed of as asbestos waste. Workers wore half-face respirators with P100 filters and disposable coveralls.
Abatement work was conducted by certified asbestos workers. Work was supervised by a certified hygienist. ASTRA’s certified hygienist daily monitored the removal worker’s personal air and collected air samples from outside the containment structure to check for environmental contamination. He also provided clearance reports to ensure proper abatement procedures.
