Locating Asbestos-Containing Materials
Find out where asbestos can be found in your home or commercial building.
The use of asbestos in construction materials was phased out in the late 1980s. However, asbestos-containing materials already in the country could still be used until supplies ran out. This means it’s possible to find asbestos in buildings, especially those built or renovated between 1950 and 2000.
As a licensed asbestos removal company, we have the knowledge and expertise to help you manage, encapsulate, remove and dispose of all types of asbestos-containing materials. Based in Auckland, we can safely remove asbestos from Whangarei to the Bay of Plenty.
