It’s estimated that 1 in 3 homes in Australia contain asbestos, so if you’re planning on renovating your home, always get an asbestos test done first. Asbestos is a hazardous material that can have serious repercussions if inhaled, so it’s always better to be safe than sorry.

Pre-1985: Very likely
1985-1990: Likely
1990-Present day: Less likely but still a possibility
If you’re unsure about whether or not your home contains asbestos, the best thing to do is to hire an asbestos inspector from Sidepost.

Asbestos inspections – why book Sidepost?
Sidepost provides cost effective solutions without compromising quality or service. Our asbestos inspectors are all licensed and experienced, and believe it’s their mission to protect the public from the dangers of asbestos.
Whether you’re a buyer looking to have a pre-purchase asbestos inspection or a vendor getting your property ready for sale, we can help. We also provide commercial asbestos inspections for business owners and property managers.
Let’s go through the primary reasons why you should book an asbestos inspection with Sidepost:
Comprehensive asbestos survey – Our asbestos inspectors will survey the property from top to bottom, taking samples of any materials they suspect may contain asbestos.
Independent NATA-accredited laboratory – We only use independent, NATA-accredited laboratories to test our samples. This ensures the results are accurate and reliable.
Fast turnaround – We understand that our clients generally need the results of the asbestos inspection ASAP, so we’ll have your asbestos register delivered within 48 hours.
Asbestos management – Identifying asbestos is only half of the battle – you also need to know how to safely deal with it. With our management plan, you’ll know which hazardous materials contain friable asbestos, and what needs to be done to remove it.
Affordability – For something as important as an asbestos inspection, you don’t want to cut corners and try to save a few bucks. But that doesn’t mean it has to be expensive either. Our prices are extremely competitive, and we offer discounts for multiple properties.
Fully licensed asbestos assessors – Our highly professional team of asbestos inspectors are all licensed and experienced. They know exactly what to look for, and how to safely take samples without disturbing any asbestos fibres.
Convenient online booking – If something’s come up, feel free to reschedule your asbestos inspection online. We’ll do our best to accommodate you if enough notice is given.
Asbestos removal – If our inspectors do find asbestos containing material, we can put you in touch with a licensed asbestos removal company who can safely remove it from your property.
If you suspect asbestos is lurking in your property, don’t wait to get in touch with our team of professional asbestos inspectors. We’re fast, thorough and always aim to provide cost effective solutions that meet your budget.
What happens if asbestos is found in my home?
If asbestos is found in your home, it’s important to show restraint and not try to remove it yourself.
As long as the asbestos is in good condition and not damaged or disturbed, it poses very little risk. However, if you’re planning any home renovations, it’s essential to hire an asbestos removal company to come in and remove the asbestos before getting started.
Once our inspectors have found any hazardous materials containing friable asbestos, we’ll outline the best asbestos management strategies tailored to you. Generally speaking, Sidepost recommends hiring a licensed asbestos removalist shortly after to get rid of the asbestos from your home.
If you have any questions about our asbestos testing services, don’t hesitate to get in touch.
