A clear, honest starting point when you think you've found asbestos.
Finding asbestos, or even suspecting it, can be stressful. You might be halfway through a renovation, cleaning up after a storm, preparing a property for sale, or looking at an old fibro shed and wondering whether it's safe. Suddenly there are questions about licences, testing, safety rules and disposal, and it's hard to know who to trust.
That's why we created Asbestos Removal Hobart. Our goal is simple: to give Hobart property owners a clear, responsible first step, and to connect them directly with a properly licensed local professional who can get the job done safely.
Australia had one of the highest rates of asbestos use in the world, and Hobart has thousands of homes, sheds and businesses built with it. Most of it is harmless while it's left alone. The real danger comes when it's disturbed without the right knowledge. Most people don't want a jargon-filled lecture. They want to know what to do right now, who is properly licensed to help, and how to avoid making things worse. That's what we're here for.
We make it easy to reach a properly licensed local asbestos removalist without searching around or wondering who to trust. When you contact us, we connect you directly with one.
Share what you've found, where it is, roughly how much there is, and whether it's been damaged.
Your enquiry goes directly to a licensed asbestos removal business servicing Hobart. They'll give you their business name and licence details, so you'll always know exactly who they are before you decide to go ahead.
The removalist carries out the on-site assessment and gives you a clear written scope covering what's being removed, the safety controls, waste disposal, what's included and excluded, and the total price or how it's calculated.
There's no obligation and no pressure. If you go ahead, the removalist takes care of the removal, clean-up, disposal and any required clearance, and is responsible for all work performed on your property.
We encourage every customer to check the licence of anyone carrying out asbestos removal work, including anyone we connect you with. Ask for their licence details and check them using WorkSafe Tasmania's online search for licensed asbestos removalists. It takes a couple of minutes, and any reputable removalist will be happy for you to check.
We don't carry out removal ourselves. We connect you with a licensed asbestos removalist, who carries out the assessment and removal work. You'll always know who is doing your job, and can check their licence, before you commit.
No one can reliably confirm asbestos from a photo. The only way to know for sure is testing by a NATA-accredited laboratory. Photos taken safely from a distance do help a removalist understand your job, though.
