Why Test for Asbestos in Sydney and the Blue Mountains?

Many older properties in Sydney and the Blue Mountains still contain asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) — especially homes, schools, and buildings constructed before the late 1980s. When disturbed, asbestos can release microscopic fibres into the air, which are known to cause serious health conditions such as:

• Mesothelioma

• Asbestosis

• Lung cancer

If you suspect asbestos may be present, testing is essential before beginning any construction, demolition, or renovation work.

Where Asbestos Might Be Found

Common locations where asbestos may be hidden include:

• Wall cladding and fibro sheeting

• Ceilings and eaves

• Vinyl floor tiles and adhesives

• Corrugated roofing and insulation

• Old fencing and electrical backing boards

• Contaminated soil or fill from past disposal
