Risks Associated with Asbestos
Asbestos used to be an extremely common construction material due to its unique durable and insulating properties. However, it is now against the law to use asbestos due to its numerous and very serious health and environmental risks. Asbestos itself is made up of many tiny fibres, which cause irritation and aggravation in the lungs when inhaled in large quantities or over a long period of time. This can lead to more serious health risks, such as asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma. The likelihood and severity of these health risks increase with duration of exposure, age, and deterioration of lung health due to smoking, among others. If not contained properly, asbestos can also contaminate the environment, spreading through soil and waterways. Due to these risks, it is imperative that if you suspect you may be exposed to asbestos you request our asbestos detection services. If asbestos is present, our asbestos removal Melbourne services can help you quickly and safely contain the contaminants and perform professional asbestos removal.
Asbestos Detection in Asbestos Removal Darebin
The first step to asbestos removal in any job is asbestos detection, to determine that the asbestos is present in the targeted construction. In this case with Residential Asbestos Removal Darebin, our clients pinpointed a small shed in their backyard that they believed contained asbestos. The old and rundown shed seemed a prime suspect for asbestos, but in order to be sure, we began our asbestos testing Melbourne service. We took samples from the interior and exterior of the shed in order to have them professionally tested and determine the asbestos contamination level of the building. From this test, we determined that the shed contained 100% asbestos. We recommended the best next step, which in this case was total demolition and asbestos disposal.

We removed the asbestos following the WorkSafe regulations and guidelines regarding safe asbestos removal services and asbestos disposal. This is to ensure that we followed the highest safety standards when handling and removing asbestos, to ensure the health and safety of our clients.

These bags were then stored in a protective trailer before being transported for safe and regulated asbestos disposal.
