Our 5-Step Asbestos Removal Process in Melbourne
Inspection & Laboratory Testing
We conduct a thorough asbestos inspection and send samples to a NATA-accredited laboratory to confirm presence and classification as Class A (friable) or Class B (non-friable).
Compliance & Authority Notification
Required notifications and documentation are lodged to ensure full compliance with WorkSafe Victoria and EPA regulations before removal begins.
Site Containment & Safety Controls

Where is Asbestos Found in Melbourne?
If your property was built or renovated before 1990, it is highly likely to contain asbestos-containing materials (ACM). In Melbourne’s middle-ring suburbs especially in the classic weatherboards of Reservoir, Coburg, and Preston, and the brick veneers of Glen Waverley, asbestos was the standard for durability and fireproofing.
Knowing where to look is the first step in staying safe during a renovation.
1. Internal: Bathrooms, Kitchens & Laundries
In Melbourne’s wet areas, asbestos was used to prevent water damage and fire.
- Wall Backing: Asbestos Cement (AC) sheeting (often called Villaboard) was used behind tiles in almost every pre-1990 bathroom.
- Flooring: Vinyl floor tiles and their black bitumen adhesive often contain high concentrations of asbestos.
- Ceilings: Popcorn or textured ceilings in older lounges and hallways.
2. External: The Fibro Essentials
Melbourne’s iconic architecture from the 50s through the 80s relied heavily on fibro for external structures.
- Eaves & Soffits: The flat sheets tucked under your roofline are one of the most common asbestos finds.
- Fencing: Corrugated hardifence or super six fencing was a staple for backyard boundaries across the Northern and Eastern suburbs.
- Cladding: Imitation brick cladding or flat fibro sheets used to enclose porches or sunrooms.
3. Electrical & Heating: Hidden Hazards
These areas often contain Friable (Class A) asbestos, which is higher risk.
- Switchboards: Old zelemite or bakelite mounting boards in your electrical meter box.
- Flue Pipes: Asbestos-cement pipes used for gas heaters, wood fires, and hot water systems.
- Lagging: Insulation wrapped around old hot water pipes in industrial sites or large heritage estates.
4. Roofing & Drainage
- Super Six Sheets: Large, corrugated asbestos roofing common on garages, sheds, and industrial warehouses.
- Gutters & Downpipes: Often made from asbestos-cement, which becomes extremely brittle and dangerous as it ages.

Frequently Asked Questions
If your Melbourne home was built before 1990, it likely contains asbestos. Common sites include eaves, vinyl tiles, or wet-area walls. The only way to be 100% sure is through professional NATA-accredited lab testing, which we provide.
Costs vary based on the square meterage and whether the asbestos is Class A or B. We provide free, transparent quotes within 24 hours so you can plan your budget accurately.
For external jobs, yes. For internal removal, we seal the zone and use negative pressure. For absolute peace of mind, we recommend vacating until the final Clearance Certificate is issued.
In Victoria, if you remove more than 10 square metres of non-friable asbestos (Class B) or any amount of friable asbestos (Class A), a Clearance Certificate is legally required. This document is issued by an independent assessor to prove the area is decontaminated and safe for re-occupation. We coordinate this process for you to ensure your project remains 100% compliant.
For most licensed asbestos removal in Melbourne, you are required to notify neighbours and adjoining properties at least 5 days before work begins. This is part of the WorkSafe Victoria safety protocol. Our team manages this communication, provides clear signage and professional notifications so your neighbours feel informed and safe while we work.
You should always ask for a copy of the company’s WorkSafe Victoria License (Class A or B) and their current insurance certificate. As a Class A specialist, we hold the highest level of licensing available to allow us to handle any asbestos hazard.
