What is Asbestos?
Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was used in construction for several decades. It is durable and resistant to heat, fire and many chemicals. This made it a great material for use in the construction of homes, offices and factories.
The main properties of asbestos are:
- Electrical resistance
- Non-flammable
- Chemical resistance
- Strength under tension
- Stability when heated
- No detectable smell or taste
Asbestos is classified as carcinogenic to humans.
Left undisturbed, the material doesn´t pose a risk. However, if damaged or decayed, it can become airborne. If inhaled, they can give rise to serious diseases such as asbestosis and lung cancer.
Although asbestos is no longer used, many buildings may still contain it.

Amphibole
Amphibole fibres have a straight, jagged shape. There are five types:
- Actinolite

Our Services
Our highly skilled and experienced team provides practical solutions to asbestos problems with the following services:
Asbestos Testing
If you have an old home or building, there is a good chance it contains asbestos. We have extensive experience in testing for the presence of the dangerous fibres.
If you suspect you have asbesots, make sure nobody touches it. We´ll inspect your property for signs of the suspicious-looking material and send it to our National Association of Testing Authorities (NATA)-accredited lab for testing. We´ll receive the results quickly and will let you know immediately.
Removal
Our technicians can remove every kind of asbestos-containing material (board and fibrous form) no matter where it is located on a property. All our work is compliant with industry standards and health and safety regulations.
When you engage our services, we turn up on time and work quickly, discreetly and efficiently.
Disposal
We can manage the removal of friable or non-friable asbestos from your site or property. Our vehicles are licenced to carry asbestos waste, and we dispose of it at locations approved by the Queensland Government. We carry out our work with the utmost attention to detail, ensuring no toxic fibres are released into the atmosphere.
Asbestos Site Demolition
Demolition of a building risks sending dangerous fibres into the atmosphere. Before any partial or whole building demolition, we can perform a comprehensive asbestos site survey for you. We´ll send sample materials away to a NATA-accredited lab. If the results are positive, we can safely remove and dispose of the dangerous substances.
Decontamination
After every asbestos removal project, we decontaminate the site and ensure it is 100% safe. At all times, we follow the strictest health and safety guidelines.
Notifications and Clearance Certificates
Once we completely removed asbestos from your building, we will take care of the certifications and notifications. A clearance certificate confirms the building is safe for normal use.
Service Areas
We provide expert asbestos services to residential and commercial clients in the following areas:
- Brisbane Northside & Southside
- Brisbane East & West
- Toowoomba & Ipswich
- Sunshine Coast
- Gold Coast & Tweed Heads
