Friable Asbestos Removal

As a fully licensed contractor, we are legally certified to handle the most dangerous types of asbestos. This includes Friable Asbestos Removal, which is loosely packed asbestos that crumbles easily, as well as regular bonded asbestos. We use the highest level of safety gear to handle these complex jobs safely.

Our Safe Removal Process

Step 01

Detailed Safety Plan

Friable asbestos crumbles easily into toxic powder, making it the most dangerous type to handle. We start by conducting a highly detailed inspection to identify the exact risks. We then write up a custom, comprehensive safety plan (ARCP) specifically designed to manage this high-risk material, ensuring every single step is meticulously planned out.

Step 02

Decontamination Zones

Because the risk of airborne dust is so high, we build a specialized 3-stage wet and dry decontamination shower unit attached to the work area. Our technicians must pass through this shower system every time they enter or exit the sealed zone. This extreme measure guarantees that absolutely no microscopic asbestos fibers ever leave the site on their clothing.

Step 03

Filtered Air Systems

We install heavy-duty, industrial negative pressure units (NPUs) inside the sealed work area. These massive fans constantly suck the air through dense HEPA filters, creating a vacuum effect that stops contaminated air from leaking out. The air is scrubbed clean continuously while our team carefully bags up the dangerous, crumbling materials.

Step 04

Specialized Gear

Our highly trained removal team wears top-of-the-line safety gear, including full-body disposable suits and positive-pressure breathing masks that supply them with clean air. They carefully extract the friable asbestos, immediately placing it into specialized heavy-duty waste bags, ensuring total safety for themselves and your property.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Friable (Class A) and Bonded (Class B) asbestos?

Friable asbestos is loosely packed and easily turns to powder when touched, making it very dangerous to breathe. Bonded asbestos is mixed solidly into cement (like fibro boards). We have licenses to safely handle both.

Why does friable asbestos cost more to remove?

Because it crumbles into dust so easily, we have to build complex decontamination showers and use heavy-duty air filtering machines to keep the environment safe. It takes more time and equipment to do it perfectly.

Do I get an official safety certificate?

Yes! When we finish the job, an independent safety expert will check the work area. Once they approve it, you will get a formal Asbestos Clearance Certificate. This gives you total peace of mind and proves to anyone that your property is completely safe.

How much does it cost to remove asbestos?

The cost depends on what kind of asbestos you have, how much there is, and how hard it is to reach. We always provide a completely free, easy-to-understand quote with zero hidden fees so you know exactly what to expect.
