Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was once widely used in construction and other materials due to its strength, fire resistance, and affordability. However, asbestos is now known to be a highly dangerous carcinogen, and its use has been banned in Australia since 2003.
If you live in a home or building built before 1990, there’s a good chance it contains asbestos. Asbestos can be found in various materials, including roofing, siding, flooring, insulation, and even some types of paint.
Consequently, it’s crucial to conduct asbestos inspection and testing to maintain your safety. At Sydney Asbestos, we’re a leading company in asbestos removal and testing, offering comprehensive asbestos inspection services in Sydney and Wollongong to protect you and your loved ones from the dangers of asbestos.
Asbestos Inspection Services
Asbestos inspection services involve examining building materials to determine if they contain asbestos. Due to the similarity between ACMs and general construction materials, it’s challenging to identify asbestos by merely looking at it. Sydney Asbestos can help you determine this hazardous mineral and provide accurate results.
We offer expert asbestos inspection services in Sydney, providing thorough examinations of your property to identify any potential asbestos-containing materials. Our team of experienced professionals uses the latest technology and follows strict safety protocols to ensure accurate results and minimise the risk of asbestos exposure.
When to Consider an Inspection
If you’re renovating or planning to demolish a house built before 2004, there is a chance that it may contain ACMs. Approximately one-third of all homes built in Australia contain ACMs. Asbestos was banned in Australia on December 31, 2003, but many homes and buildings constructed before this date may still have asbestos in various forms, such as:
- Loose-fill insulation
- Internal and external wall structures, including various claddings
- Fascias topped with capping
- Eaves lining the edges of the roof
- Garages and outdoor sheds
- Soil and subfloor spaces prone to collecting debris
- Power distribution boxes, specifically their internal linings and backing boards
- Rooftop surfaces
- Fences outlining your property
- Mastics used in concrete joins and window frames.
If you’re uncertain whether your home may contain asbestos, contact us and we’ll assist you.
Inspection Process
At Sydney Asbestos, our inspection process involves gathering samples of suspected asbestos-containing materials, usually no larger than a 5-cent piece. Your property will be inspected thoroughly and identify areas where ACMs are present.
Our specially trained team of Occupational Hygienists will identify, retrieve, and courier samples directly to a National Association of Testing Authorities (NATA) accredited laboratory to ensure reliable and accurate results.
Our staff can also determine the overall condition of the suspect material on site, which leads to the decision-making process of how and what measures should be implemented after the assessment.
Asbestos Testing and Air Monitoring
In addition to determining the presence of asbestos in building materials, we offer asbestos air monitoring services. Air monitoring is essential to ensure asbestos fibres do not become airborne during removal procedures, posing a risk to occupants and workers.
Asbestos air monitoring devices can be installed in and around subject areas by expertly trained and licensed staff. The setting up of asbestos air monitoring will ensure that the removal process of ACM is done in accordance with current regulations, providing reassurance to homeowners, neighbours, and the wider community.
Licensed Asbestos Assessors Sydney
When dealing with asbestos, it’s crucial to work with licensed asbestos assessors with the knowledge and expertise to handle the hazardous material safely. We employ a team of licensed asbestos assessors in Sydney, all of whom hold Class B bonded asbestos removal licenses. Our professionals are fully trained and equipped to remove asbestos securely, reducing the chances of any health and safety risks.
