Building-Era Findings

What to watch in a 1966 Toronto building

Issues commonly associated with this building's construction era, type and area. These are patterns to check, not confirmed findings for this specific building.

2 era/typology topics to review · 1 higher-cost

We haven't confirmed this building's construction type yet. Items tagged if applicable depend on it (e.g. glass tower vs. wood-frame).

Systems

Aluminum branch wiring

High

Aluminum branch wiring that oxidises and loosens at connections, carrying a much higher fire-hazard risk than copper.

Widespread during the mid-1960s copper shortage; use ended in the late 1970s over fire-safety concerns.

What it means for you: Insurers frequently charge 15–30% more or require remediation (pigtailing) and an ESA safety certificate.

Check: ESA Certificate of Acceptance and evidence of pigtailing or rewiring.

Repairs & Condition

Asbestos / vermiculite / UFFI (pre-1990)

Medium

Asbestos-containing materials, Zonolite vermiculite, and (1975–1978) UFFI insulation used in older construction.

Asbestos use ran into the 1980s; a pre-1990 build has a reasonable chance of containing these materials.

What it means for you: Safe if undisturbed, but provincial law requires a hazmat survey before any renovation/expansion/demolition, adding cost and time.

Check: Hazardous-materials survey; a Salvage/Abatement or demolition permit on record indicates it was handled.
