Our Mission: Protect People First

At the core of everything we do is one simple principle:

People come before profit.

Asbestos exposure can have lifelong consequences. That’s why we don’t rush jobs, overlook details, or compromise on safety. Our mission is to protect:

  • Your health
  • Your property
  • Your legal compliance
  • Your peace of mind

We follow strict WorkSafe and OH&S regulations, work alongside independent environmental hygienists, and ensure every site is safe to reoccupy before we leave.

Because when asbestos is involved, “good enough” is never good enough.

Our Team: Licensed, Trained, and Client-Focused

Our team isn’t made up of general labourers.
They’re fully licensed Class A & Class B asbestos removal specialists, trained to the highest standards in the industry.

Every project begins with:

  • A thorough inspection
  • Clear identification of asbestos type
  • A tailored removal and safety action plan
  • A transparent, upfront quote

And every project ends with:

  • Proper containment and disposal
  • Final inspection
  • Clearance certification
  • A site that’s safe, clean, and compliant

Big job or small, your safety is treated with the same level of care.

Our Clients Say It Best

Paul was absolutely incredible, he replied quickly, was incredibly professional, and got the job done at a really good price too. He answered all my dense questions and did so without making me feel like an idiot.

The whole team was trustworthy, also, we weren’t able to be there to unlock the door, so we left a key for the,m and it was returned to the same spot. Any tools that were used (in our case, our generator) were taken care of and put back where it came from.

I cannot recommend these guys enough, thank you to Paul and his team again!

Connor Beggs

I used Asbestos Australia to remove Friable asbestos from my factory, they were punctual, clean and most importantly SAFE. They used all the latest technologies, I’m so happy with the service. I would use them on every job!

Nin Soun

Paul was great to deal with. Quick, efficient and cost-effective. My job was completed with care by his great team. I would recommend them to anyone. Cheers mate!

Jonathan Gallwey

Can’t recommend AA enough. It was a pleasure dealing with Terry. Throughout the entire process his communication was top notch. He always kept me up to date with what was happening on site. The team worked very efficiently and their experience and expertise really showed. Very happy with their work all at a very reasonable price.

Giuliano P

Top job by Tommy and his team removing old garage with bonded asbestos cement sheets in Glen Iris. Tommy explained everything. Returned all calls. One of the best companies I’ve ever had to do jobs. Have all equipment and arranged Work Safe stuff beforehand and provided Hygienist on day job was fiished to check everything safely removed and a  Clearance Certificate day after job. All included in the quote. And the best quote of 4 from Hi Pages. But mainly they know their stuff with asbestos demolition and are friendly and helpful.  Others I was uncertain about. Tommy explained everything. Efficient and a pleasure to have Asbestos Australia do the demolition.

Arnold Wheeler

We had a shed and eaves removed by Ridhwan and the Asbestos Australia team. The whole process was seamless and they left the site clean, tidy and locked up. Could not recommend them more highly.

FAQs

The cost of asbestos removal depends on factors like the type of asbestos (friable or non-friable), the size of the affected area, and the job’s complexity. Claim your free quote here.

Asbestos is often found in roofing, walls, insulation, floor tiles, and eaves. Since it’s hard to identify by sight, we recommend professional testing by licensed hygienists to confirm its presence.

Friable asbestos easily crumbles into airborne fibres and is more hazardous. Non-friable asbestos is bound with other materials (e.g., cement) and poses less risk unless damaged. Both types require professional handling for removal.

For most removal jobs, we recommend vacating the home to minimize exposure risks. Our team uses containment measures and HEPA filtration to ensure safety, but staying elsewhere during removal is often the safest option.

The duration varies based on the size and complexity of the job. Small projects like removing eaves or sheds may take 1-2 days, while larger jobs like roof removal could take a week or more. Timelines are provided in your custom asbestos removal plan.

Yes, we offer rapid-response services for asbestos-related emergencies. Our team can assess the situation quickly, isolate the affected area, and provide a safe removal plan to minimize risks.

Removed asbestos is sealed in approved containers and transported to licensed waste facilities for safe disposal in compliance with EPA and WorkSafe regulations.

For friable asbestos or large-scale removals, we handle all notifications to WorkSafe Victoria as required by law. Homeowners don’t need to worry about this step when working with us.

We recommend clearing the affected area of personal belongings, securing pets, and informing neighbours if necessary. Our team will provide specific preparation guidelines based on your home and the scope of work.
