Asbestos Testing Services in NSW

Asbestos was commonly used in building materials in NSW during the 20th century. Now, we know it can cause serious health risks.

Testing for asbestos is important. It helps find asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) and keeps everyone safe. This is especially true before any renovations, demolitions, or property purchases. This is crucial for buildings built before 2003.

When Should You Test for Asbestos?

  • Before any renovation work begins on premises built before 2003.

  • When you are considering buying an older property.

  • If you identify potentially asbestos-containing materials (ACMs), like old insulation, wall linings or textured ceilings.

  • Immediately upon discovering damaged building materials in older buildings.

ACCORDING TO SAFEWORK NSW:

“….when asbestos containing products are disturbed by cutting, drilling, water blasting or similar activities, small fibres may be released into the air. These fibres are harmful if inhaled and may lead to asbestos related diseases such as asbestosis, lung cancer or mesothelioma.”

Asbestos Testing Process

At Safe Asbestos Removalist, we have trusted, safe processes in place to identify, remove and dispose of asbestos. Here are the steps we take to confirm the presence of dangerous asbestos in your building:

Assessment

Our qualified inspector will carry out an assessment of your building to identify any materials that may include asbestos.

Sampling

Our teams wear full Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). They follow strict safety rules to stop fibres from being released while collecting samples.

Reports

All samples are tested at a formal NATA-accredited laboratory. We normally get results within 24 to 48 hours.

Asbestos Disposal

We will issue a report detailing the type and location of any asbestos detected on your property.
