Asbestos Removal Airds

Airds was built as a single large public-housing estate in the 1970s, and it is now going through sustained renewal. Renewal on stock of that age means asbestos comes out before anything else happens.

Asbestos in Airds homes

Airds was constructed as a planned public-housing estate in the 1970s to a small set of repeating designs, so asbestos-cement eaves, wet-area linings, external sheeting panels and fencing occur in identical positions across the whole suburb. The ongoing renewal programme means much of this housing is being refurbished or demolished, and each of those pathways requires the material to be removed under controlled conditions first.

Estate renewal is bulk work, and bulk work has to be documented. Every load leaving an Airds site needs to be tracked, and larger loads require a consignment number through the NSW waste tracking system.

We handle that paperwork rather than leaving it with the builder, because a disposal record that cannot be produced later is a compliance problem for whoever owns the site.

Where it turns up locally

  • Fibro sheeting on walls, eaves and garages
  • Corrugated asbestos-cement roofing and sheds
  • Asbestos-cement fencing along boundaries
  • Vinyl floor tiles and their backing adhesive

Asbestos removal in Airds — common questions

Do I get documentation showing it was disposed of properly?

Yes. Asbestos is a regulated waste stream in NSW, so it has to be wrapped, labelled, transported and received at a facility licensed to accept it. You receive the disposal documentation with your invoice. On friable or Class A work you also receive the clearance certificate issued by a licensed asbestos assessor.

How do I know for certain whether it is asbestos?

You cannot tell for certain by looking at it, and neither can we. Only a NATA-accredited laboratory can confirm the presence of asbestos, by analysing a sample under AS 4964-2004. We refer you to a licensed asbestos assessor, who collects the sample safely and has it analysed, and you get the laboratory's written result. Be wary of anyone offering an instant on-site result — that is an opinion, not an analysis.

How long does asbestos removal take?

Most residential jobs are done in a single day. A garage roof or a fence run is usually a few hours; a full house strip-out or friable removal with air monitoring and a clearance certificate takes longer, because the area has to stay isolated until the clearance is issued. We give you a realistic timeframe with the quote rather than after the job starts.

Is there likely to be asbestos in my home?

If your home was built or renovated before the late 1980s, it is likely to contain asbestos somewhere. In Sydney the usual places are fibro wall and ceiling sheeting, eaves, corrugated roofing on garages and sheds, boundary fencing, and the backing under old vinyl floor tiles. Bonded asbestos that is intact and undisturbed is generally stable — the risk comes from breaking, cutting, drilling or weathering it.
