Why is testing so important?
We often get asked, what is so important about getting samples tested in a laboratory as opposed to having them tested onsite with a handheld device?
Having asbestos samples tested in a NATA (National Association of Testing Authorities Australia) is the only legally recognised form of asbestos testing in Australia. The benefits of laboratory testing are:
* 100% accuracy
* They can test for friable and non-friable asbestos
* They are tested independently
We Know Where to Find Asbestos
After our many years in the industry, we can distinguish between products that we know have no asbestos in them.
This will save you money by keeping the quantity of samples required, to a minimum.


Asbestos was used in Australia from the 1940’s right up until the total ban in 2005. Asbestos was also used in over 3000 products. It was called the “miracle mineral“ and was used in everything including:
- cigarette filters
- children’s crayons
- makeup
- building products
- clothing
- paint
- water pipes
- wiring
In the family home, in many instances, asbestos was used in walls, ceilings, flooring, roofing, fencing, garden planters, panelling, fuse boxes, exterior cladding, the putty in windows, tile glue.
We have found asbestos just about anywhere you can imagine within the family home and even workplaces.

Jason and Karen were very helpful with testing of materials and guidance! Thank you!
The top reasons you should get testing:
- Testing saves you money because if it is not asbestos you can save on demolition costs and even DIY this part of your project.
- Knowing whether or not you have asbestos helps you make informed decisions.
- You can ask our expert advice while we are onsite. We are the South East Queensland’s most trusted Asbestos removal company, so please don’t hesitate to ask.
- Asbestos Testing is actually the cheapest part of any renovation, and it leaves you with peace-of-mind.
- If you are doing a pre-purchase inspection of a home, you can decide if you want to buy it if there is asbestos found.
- Testing helps you with your budgeting. Finding out whether you are dealing with friable or non-friable asbestos makes a huge difference to your budget.
- Renovating is already a big task to undertake. By getting testing done means you will have one less surprise when renovating.
- Keep your project running on schedule. Have your testing completed and this will ensure you have less hassle when dealing with other trades which can put jobs behind schedule. If asbestos is found, we can remove it and ensure your property is clear and ready for your trades to streamline their processes.
- Asbestos is deadly you don’t want to second-guess.
- When nothing else matters more to you than your family’s safety, testing is the only way to know for 100% certainty that you have done everything you can to keep them safe when renovating.

Jason really helped us out a lot by providing an inspection and report on a property we were looking to buy. This was just what we needed because with his knowledge and experience he was able to find a lot of places where asbestos was present that was missed by the building and pest inspection. We are really happy with this service.
