Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) – Asbestos Management
Q: What is asbestos and why is it dangerous?
Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral once used in building materials for its heat resistance and durability. When disturbed, it releases microscopic fibres that can cause serious health issues like mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis. That's why identifying and managing it correctly is critical.
Q: Do I need asbestos testing before renovating?
Yes. If your home or building was built before 1990, there’s a high chance it contains asbestos. NSW regulations require testing or inspection by a competent person before renovation or demolition. Our licensed assessor can help you meet these requirements safely and efficiently.
Q: What’s the difference between an asbestos inspection and an asbestos register?
An asbestos inspection is a physical survey to identify suspected asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). An asbestos register is a legally required document for workplaces and rental properties that records the presence and condition of any identified ACMs. We offer both as part of our service.
Q: How much does asbestos testing cost?
Our asbestos testing starts from $300 + GST, which includes a site inspection, safe sample collection, and NATA-accredited lab analysis. Additional samples are charged at $90 + GST per sample. For larger sites or registers, contact us for a fixed-price quote.
Q: What is an Asbestos Management Plan (AMP)?
An AMP is required if asbestos is identified in a workplace. It outlines how asbestos will be managed, who is responsible, how risks will be controlled, and when monitoring will occur. We write clear, WHS-compliant AMPs tailored to your site.
Q: Can I remove asbestos myself?
In NSW, you can only remove small amounts of non-friable asbestos (<10 m²) without a licence. For larger amounts or any friable asbestos, licensed professionals must be engaged. We do not remove asbestos but can help coordinate trusted, licensed removal contractors and provide the required clearance certificate afterward.
Q: Do I need a clearance certificate after asbestos removal?
Yes. A clearance certificate from a Licensed Asbestos Assessor is often required to confirm the area is safe to reoccupy after removal. We provide fast, independent clearance inspections across NSW.
