Everything you need to know about finding an Asbestos Removal Expert

Asbestos is a dangerous fibre that is present in many older homes.  It poses a serious health risk and, as such, needs to be disposed of by a licensed professional.  Due to the nature of the material, when removing asbestos professionals wear full protective coverings including respirators, keep the area wet to prevent dust traveling, use hand tools rather than power tools, and seal bags containing asbestos waste for removal.

Hiring an Asbestos Removalist

Because asbestos removal is so dangerous, the professional should be fully licensed.  Strict procedures also need to be followed to ensure that dangerous fibres are not released into the air.  The use of a licensed professional is a legal requirement if loose or friable material containing asbestos or bonded asbestos that is greater than 10 square metres in area is present.  Asbestos removal companies need to be registered under the relevant legislation for your state or territory and permits need to be obtained from WorkCover before any work is begun.
