Safe Asbestos Removal for Wollongong Homes
Protect your Illawarra family from the hidden danger of asbestos. Asbestos becomes a serious health risk in Wollongong’s post-war fibro and brick homes during renovations, repairs, or storm damage. Our specialist residential asbestos removal Wollongong service ensures your home project is safe and fully compliant with Wollongong City Council and NSW regulations.
Licensed Asbestos Removal Illawarra Homeowners Can Trust
In Wollongong, state law requires a licensed professional to remove any friable asbestos or bonded asbestos over 10 square metres. The NSW Government strongly advises that
“a licensed asbestos removalist knows how to safely remove and dispose of asbestos, then decontaminate your property to minimise health risks.” DIY removal is not worth the risk to your health or the potential for significant fines.
Common Asbestos Locations in Wollongong Homes
If your Wollongong home was built or renovated before 1990, it’s likely to have asbestos containing materials. Our teams commonly find and safely remove asbestos from:
- Fibro cement sheeting (internal and external walls, a hallmark of post-war Illawarra homes)
- Waterproofing in wet areas (e.g., behind bathroom and kitchen tiles)
- Vinyl floor tiles and their backing
- Roofing and eaves (especially ‘super six’ fencing and corrugated roof sheets)
- Insulation around hot water pipes and domestic heaters
