If your property was built before the late 1980s or you're planning roofing, renovation or demolition work, asbestos testing is one of the safest steps you can take before work begins.
Asbestos cement roofing was commonly used throughout Australia. Testing confirms whether your roof contains asbestos before replacement begins.
Renovation work can disturb hidden asbestos-containing materials. Identifying them first helps keep everyone safe and avoids unexpected project delays.
Asbestos must be identified before demolition work begins. Early testing allows removal to be planned safely and in accordance with Australian regulations.
If you're purchasing an older property, asbestos testing provides valuable information before committing to future repairs or renovations.
If you suspect your property may contain asbestos, these are some of the most common questions we receive about inspections, testing and the next steps.
No. Many older homes contain asbestos roofing materials, however the only reliable way to confirm this is through professional inspection and laboratory testing.
Not always. Many asbestos-containing materials look similar to non-asbestos products. Laboratory testing is the only way to accurately confirm whether asbestos is present.
We don't recommend it. Disturbing asbestos-containing materials can release hazardous fibres. Sampling should be carried out safely using appropriate procedures.
If asbestos is identified, we'll explain your options and, where required, provide licensed asbestos removal before roofing or renovation work begins.
Inspection and sampling are usually completed during the site visit. Laboratory turnaround times vary, but results are typically available within a few business days.
