Home renovations are a leading cause of asbestos exposure.
Home renovations are recognised as a leading cause of asbestos exposure in Australia, but there are few legal requirements for residential asbestos inspections.
Asbestos materials can be found in the majority of Australian homes built before 1980. Although asbestos materials in the home are usually lower risk products, and safe to leave in place, it is important to know where they are to prevent accidental disturbance.
Significant legislation exists to address the risks of asbestos exposure in the workplace, including a requirement for Workplace Asbestos Audits. Our residential asbestos inspections are conducted to this standard, by experienced & licensed Asbestos Assessors, throughout Victoria.

- Our experienced consultants provide friendly and impartial advice to safely, legally, and cost-effectively manage asbestos exposure risks in the home.
- Where a licensed contractor is engaged, we can assist with the necessary Clearance Certificate.
