Asbestos Testing

Asbestos has been recognised as the number one workplace killer in New Zealand. While Asbestos can be very dangerous if you are exposed to friable materials, it can be quite simple to identify and manage any potential risks around your home and business. Houses built, or that have had work done, between 1950 and 2000 are quite likely to contain asbestos containing materials (ACMs).
New Zealand Legislation that came in to force in April 2018 (Health and Safety at Work (Asbestos) Regulations) states that all property owners, residential landlords and businesses have a duty to identify asbestos and prepare an asbestos management plan for work involving a risk of exposure to respirable asbestos fibres. Testing for asbestos in soil is also a common requirement by Council as part of asbestos removal validation.
