Residential asbestos removal in Brisbane, Caboolture, Bribie Island, Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast, Ipswich and many other suburbs across Queensland is where we excel as an estimated one in three Queensland homes contain some form of asbestos. If you are unsure that maybe some item like fencing materials, wall cladding, roofing or any fiberous material may contain asbestos, then better be safe than sorry, contact us now so we can meet with you to evaluate your property giving you peace of mind.  

As a general rule of thumb, if your house was built:
Before the mid 1990s, it is highly likely to have been built with asbestos containing materials.
If you are unsure, if a material contains asbestos is to have it examined by a NATA accredited laboratory. Accredited sample analysis laboratories can be found on this page - NATA website search

A sample will generally cost from $50-$75. Contact the lab for specific advice on how to collect and send the sample.

Many of these labs can also undertake an asbestos survey or audit of your home. This will identify the asbestos materials within your home and provide guidance on whether they should be removed or left in situ. 

This service should be undertaken by an independent asbestos assessor and not an asbestos removals company due to the obvious conflict of interest. The person or company advising on whether it should be removed or not, shouldn't be involved in the removal!

The most common places for asbestos to be found in your home are; 
Roofing, Guttering and down pipes, Wall and ceiling sheeting throughout the house but especially within "wet areas" such as bathrooms, laundries and kitchens. Vinyl floor tiles and tile adhesives, Sheet vinyl backing, Fencing, Fascia's, gables and soffits and many other areas, that asbestos may be located within a residential home.

  • Is it safe if my house contains asbestos in the roof?
    Asbestos cement products are not a significant health risk if they are in a stable condition and remain undisturbed. Roofing that is weathered, structurally unsound or no longer waterproof should be replaced. You should never walk on an asbestos cement roof as they are brittle and people have died or suffered injury after falling through. Engage a licensed asbestos removalist.
