Commercial Asbestos Removal Perth

Commercial asbestos removal Perth

Rapid Asbestos Removals Perth are a local company specialising in asbestos removal on commercial sites.

Asbestos in commercial buildings is very common throughout Perth. Asbestos was heavily used in the building industry up until the 1990s and will likely be present in some form within the structure or surrounds of many buildings. If you are unsure if asbestos is present at your commercial property, it’s essential to hire a professional to carry out an asbestos inspection before commencing work. If you require 100% conclusive results, we offer Asbestos sample testing and reports.

All contractors need a safe and clean work site to get the job efficiently. As the asbestos removal and asbestos disposal portion of any works is often conducted first, we liaise directly with other trades in order for the job to run as smoothly and efficiently as possible.

Without a licence, it is illegal in Western Australia to remove more than 10 square metres of bonded (non-friable) asbestos. Without extensive experience and specialised equipment, removing asbestos-containing material can be dangerous. To avoid legal and health risks, always hire a licenced asbestos removal company. At Rapid Asbestos, we hold a Class B licence and are fully licenced to remove non-friable asbestos on commercial sites.

Asbestos in commercial buildings

Asbestos materials can become a health risk if the asbestos fibres become airborne. Asbestos containing materials in commercial buildings can include anything from asbestos cement roofs, asbestos cement sheeting or other asbestos cement products and can be found anywhere from ceilings, ceiling cavities, doors, eaves and verandah, fencing, flooring, lifts and lift wells, roofing, walls and more.

If a commercial building was built before 1990’s, as a general rule of thumb, we recommend you speak to an asbestos removal specialist about testing the property for asbestos.

Asbestos can be found in many different places with commercial properties, such as:

Factories
Stadiums
Warehouses
Work Building
Apartment Building
Farms
Schools

Fencing contractors

As asbestos commercial properties are common in Perth, you will likely find an asbestos fence. Asbestos is commonly found in old fencing, due to its durability. If you are a fencing contractor, you’ve likely experienced the difficulty of removing the old asbestos-containing fence. Have you ever put a shovel into the ground and found the asbestos fence has just been snapped off below ground level? Do you find small pieces of asbestos in the dirt as you’re working?

At Rapid Asbestos Removals, we’re extremely thorough and efficient and will have the site safe and clean ready to install the new fence. We’ll even go the extra mile to make your fencing project easier. Installing a brick wall and leaving the trench open to save your time and effort digging it out? Consider it done. Do you need a temporary fence erected after the asbestos fence has been removed? We can save you time and effort erecting the fence as we go along.

Builders and renovation companies

During demolition or renovation projects, it is likely that asbestos-containing material will be present. If asbestos is found during the building/demolition process, it could pose health and safety risks to the workers on-site and the nearby public. In addition, it will also cause financial loss due to the downtime and disruption to other trades.

Be prepared before starting work and organise a pre-start asbestos inspection. We will do an assessment and test for asbestos containing materials. This will allow you to confidently begin any work knowing that the risk of on-site asbestos contamination has been eliminated.

If asbestos is identified once the project has begun, we can come out immediately and quote the job. We offer guaranteed start and finish times, allowing you to accurately adjust the schedule and get back to work sooner.

Frequently Asked Questions

When did asbestos stop being used in commercial buildings?

Asbestos was banned from use in Australia in December 2003. If your commercial building was built before the 1990s it is highly likely to contain some form of asbestos containing material. If it was built between the mid 1980s and 1990 there is still a likely chance asbestos is present. However, after the 1990s, it is unlikely to contain asbestos. If in doubt or if you are not sure, contact us to test the commercial property for asbestos today.

Can asbestos in commercial buildings become a health risk?

Inhalation of asbestos fibres can cause asbestosis, lung cancer and mesothelioma - and is still a serious issue for Australia even though it was banned from use in 2003. Head to our asbestos information page to learn more about asbestos dangers and diseases.

What should I do if I’m not sure if asbestos is present in a commercial building?

If you are not sure if your commercial building contains asbestos, it is best you contact an expert to test the building for asbestos, especially if you plan on doing any demolition or renovations. At Rapid Asbestos Removals, the cost of the tested sample(s) will be taken off your final invoice, if you choose us to remove the asbestos.
