Removal before demolition

All asbestos must be removed before a building is demolished. We remove it, obtain clearance and move straight into demolition with the same team. Asbestos in the ground goes through our remediation service.

In NSW, a licensed removalist is required for friable asbestos and for more than 10 square metres of non friable asbestos. We recommend licensed removal for any quantity.

It is a document issued after removal by an independent licensed asbestos assessor or competent person confirming the area is safe to reoccupy or continue work.

Cost depends on the type, quantity, condition and location of the material, and disposal fees. We provide a fixed quote after inspection.
