Asbestos Removal Melbourne
Licensed asbestos removal Melbourne homeowners, builders and asset managers trust — Class A and Class B removalists working under WorkSafe Victoria regulations with full air monitoring and clearance certification.
About Our Asbestos Removal Services
Asbestos is still present in the majority of Melbourne buildings constructed before 1990 — eaves, vinyl flooring, wet-area linings, fences, roofing, pipe lagging and electrical backing boards. Our licensed asbestos removalists Melbourne identify, isolate, remove and dispose of every form of asbestos in full compliance with WorkSafe Victoria and the EPA.
Class A and Class B asbestos removal
We hold both Class B (non-friable) and Class A (friable) asbestos removal licences. Class B covers bonded materials like fibro sheeting and vinyl tiles. Class A — the higher-risk licence — covers friable materials like pipe lagging, sprayed limpet and damaged debris. Many Melbourne removalists only hold Class B; we hold both, so we can finish your job without sub-letting the high-risk components.

WorkSafe Victoria compliance
Every asbestos removal Melbourne project we run is delivered under a WorkSafe Victoria-compliant Asbestos Removal Control Plan — including notification to WorkSafe where required, exclusion zones, decontamination units, PPE and respiratory protection, and disposal at EPA-licensed asbestos cells. You receive copies of every notification and disposal docket.
Independent air monitoring and clearance certificates
For Class A removal and most commercial Class B work, an independent occupational hygienist conducts air monitoring during removal and a final clearance inspection before reoccupation. We coordinate the hygienist, manage the inspection, and supply you with the clearance certificate that proves the area is safe.
Asbestos identification and surveys
Not sure if you have asbestos? We arrange NATA-accredited bulk sampling and laboratory analysis, and provide a written identification report. For commercial buildings we deliver division 5/6 asbestos registers and management plans that meet WorkSafe Victoria duty-holder requirements.
Servicing every Melbourne suburb
Our licensed asbestos removalists work right across Melbourne — Werribee, Tarneit, Hoppers Crossing, Point Cook in the west; Footscray and Sunshine inner-west; plus Northern, Eastern Melbourne and the Melbourne CBD. Older suburbs in particular — Footscray, Sunshine, the inner north and inner east — typically have higher asbestos prevalence, and we know what to look for.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does asbestos removal Melbourne cost?
Residential asbestos removal in Melbourne typically ranges between $1,500 and $8,000 depending on material type, quantity and access. Friable Class A removals and large commercial jobs are quoted individually. We provide fixed written quotes after a free site inspection and, where required, sampling.
Are you licensed for both Class A and Class B asbestos?
Yes. We hold both Class A (friable) and Class B (non-friable) asbestos removal licences with WorkSafe Victoria. This means we can complete your job in-house without sub-contracting the high-risk friable component.
Do I need a clearance certificate after removal?
Class A removal and most commercial Class B removal requires an independent clearance certificate before reoccupation. For residential Class B (such as eaves or fences) a clearance is best practice but not always mandatory — we will advise based on the specific scope.
Can you handle asbestos removal as part of house demolition?
Yes. For most house demolitions in Melbourne we identify and remove all asbestos under our licence before the structural demolition begins — saving you the cost and coordination of a second contractor.
How is asbestos waste disposed of?
All asbestos waste is double-wrapped, labelled and transported by EPA-licensed waste vehicles to dedicated asbestos disposal cells in Melbourne. Disposal dockets are supplied as part of project hand-over.
