Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my Sydney property contains asbestos?

Properties built before 1990 commonly contain asbestos materials. Professional asbestos inspections and testing by licensed assessors is the only reliable method to confirm presence. Visual identification alone is insufficient, as many asbestos-containing materials appear identical to non-asbestos alternatives.

What's the difference between friable and non-friable asbestos?

Friable asbestos crumbles easily when dry and poses higher health risks due to airborne fibre release. Non-friable asbestos is bonded in cement or other materials and is generally safer when undisturbed. Both types require professional assessment and appropriate handling procedures.
