What clean air services does

Clean Air Services Inc is a privately held hazardous materials abatement contractor headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, with a second office in Lethbridge. Founded in the mid-1990s (1996 per the detailed company record; one firmographic source flag 1993), the company operates across Southern Alberta and parts of Western Canada, delivering four integrated service lines: asbestos abatement and removal (including testing, encapsulation, containment, and full abatement), mould and microbial containment and removal, lead-based paint and material removal, and PCB remediation and disposal. Work is delivered by certified technicians supported by a dedicated safety officer and project managers, using specialized equipment such as HEPA-filtered negative air units and vacuums, portable decontamination units, Vec-Loader attic insulation extraction systems, airless sprayers, and full personal protective and respiratory apparatuses.

The business model is project-based professional services with quote-driven pricing determined by scope, property type, and material conditions. Go-to-market is direct field sales targeting commercial property managers, construction firms, educational institutions, healthcare providers, and government clients across Southern Alberta, supplemented by inbound phone, email, and web quote requests. The commercial mix dominates at approximately 90% of project volume versus 10% residential, and the company completes an average of approximately 305 jobs per year across all service lines. The customer base includes PCL Construction, Ellis Don, Stuart Olson, Delnor Construction, University of Calgary, Mount Royal University, Calgary Board of Education, CANA Management, Ainsworth, City of Lethbridge, Service Master Lethbridge, and Onside Lethbridge.

Competitive positioning rests on regulatory and safety credentials: COR (Certificate of Recognition) Safety Program membership, dual-province WCB registrations (Alberta #372134/2 and Saskatchewan #A164442), Calgary Construction Association membership, and $5,000,000 general liability insurance written specifically for asbestos abatement work. The firm is also pre-qualified on enterprise contractor compliance platforms (ISNetworld, Complyworks, Avetta, VendorPM), enabling direct access to institutional and property-management procurement pipelines. Ownership appears founder/management-owned with no disclosed institutional investors, no funding rounds, and no parent company. Revenue is not publicly disclosed, and no product, geographic expansion, or headcount growth signals are present in the available data.
