Asbestos Removal — Safe, Licensed, Fully Compliant
A-Class licensed asbestos removal for residential, commercial and industrial properties across Brisbane, Gold Coast and SEQ. We handle every category of asbestos-containing material and issue independent air-monitoring clearance certificates on completion.
Asbestos is the greatest cause of occupational disease deaths in Australia
If your property was built before 1990, there is a realistic possibility it contains asbestos-containing materials (ACM). If it was built before 1980, that possibility becomes a high probability.
Older Brisbane suburbs such as Annerley, Wynnum, Coorparoo, Zillmere and Holland Park — and older Gold Coast communities including Southport, Labrador and Nerang — have significant concentrations of pre-1990 housing and commercial stock. We remove ACM from every one of them.
Every category of asbestos-containing material
From stable bonded sheeting to the most hazardous friable material — our A-Class licence covers it all.
Non-friable (bonded) asbestos
Fibro wall and eave cladding, corrugated super-six roofing, flat sheeting, floor tiles, fencing. A licence is required over 10m².
Friable asbestos
Pipe and boiler lagging, sprayed fire retardant, loose-fill insulation, deteriorated tile backing. A-Class licence mandatory — which we hold.
Full clearance documentation
WHSQ notification, independent air monitoring, clearance certificate and licensed disposal manifests — the file you need to sell or renovate.
A documented eight-step removal
Every job is delivered against a site-specific SWMS with regulatory notifications and a full compliance file.
Inspection & sampling
We inspect the property and collect samples where ACM is suspected. Samples are analysed by a NATA-accredited laboratory.
Risk assessment & quote
A detailed scope of works and fixed-price quote identifying all ACM, removal methods and timeframes.
WHSQ notification
At least five business days before commencing, we notify Workplace Health and Safety Queensland as required under the WHS Regulation 2011.
Site preparation
The work area is isolated and signed. For friable work, a negative-air enclosure and decontamination facilities are established.
Safe removal
ACM is removed using wet methods to suppress fibres, double-bagged or sheeted, labelled and sealed to the Safe Work Australia code.
Air monitoring
During A-Class removal, an independent occupational hygienist verifies fibre levels remain within safe limits.
Clearance inspection
The hygienist conducts a visual clearance and final air monitoring. A clearance certificate is issued once the area passes.
Licensed disposal
All ACM waste is transported under a hazardous-waste manifest to a Queensland EPA-approved facility, with documentation provided.
What determines the cost of removal
We provide itemised, fixed-price quotes with no hidden fees — small outbuildings start from a few hundred dollars.
- Quantity and type of ACM (non-friable vs friable)
- Accessibility — roof vs floor vs wall, single vs double storey
- Site location and any travel required
- Disposal fees, priced by weight at licensed facilities
- Whether air monitoring and clearance certification is required
- Extent of site preparation and enclosure needed
Asbestos removal questions
In Queensland a homeowner may remove up to 10m² of non-friable ACM from their own residence without a licence, provided it is not a rental — but safe disposal is still required. We strongly recommend a licensed removalist regardless: the health risks of disturbing ACM improperly are severe and long-term.
Visual identification is unreliable. The only definitive method is laboratory analysis of a collected sample by a NATA-accredited laboratory. We provide asbestos inspections and sampling across Brisbane and Gold Coast.
Stop work immediately, vacate the area, and call a licensed removalist. Do not attempt to clean up debris yourself. We offer emergency asbestos clean-up for exactly this situation.
For all A-Class (friable) removal, a clearance certificate issued by a licensed assessor is required by law before the area can be reoccupied. For non-friable work we still provide documented clearance as best practice.
Manage the whole project under one licence
Because we hold both an A-Class Asbestos Removal Licence and a Queensland Demolition Licence, we can carry the related work below under the same contract.
