Why licensed matters

Asbestos is only safe when it's handled properly

Disturbed asbestos can release fibres you can't see. Victorian rules set out who can remove it and how, so it's worth using someone who holds the right licence.

Over 10 m² needs a licenceUnder Victorian law, removing more than 10 square metres of bonded (non-friable) asbestos, or working on it for more than an hour in a week, must be done by a licensed removalist.
Friable asbestos always doesCrumbly (friable) asbestos must always be removed by a removalist with a Class A licence.
Class A and Class BWorkSafe Victoria issues two licence classes. Class B covers bonded asbestos. Class A covers friable asbestos as well as Class B work.

Cost

What affects the price?

Every job is different, so the only reliable number is a quote for your job. Here's what makes the difference.

How much will my job cost?

It depends on four main things: the type of asbestos, how much there is, how easy it is to get to, and disposal. A removalist can usually give you a clearer idea once they've seen photos or the site.

Does the type of asbestos matter?

Yes, a lot. Bonded (non-friable) material like fibro sheeting is the most common in homes. Friable asbestos, which crumbles easily, needs a Class A licence, more containment and more safety steps, so it generally costs more to remove.

Is a small job cheaper?

Usually cheaper overall, but not always cheaper per square metre. Every job needs setup, protective gear, wrapping and a trip to a licensed disposal site, whatever its size.

What about access?

Material that's high up, like a roof, or in a tight space can take more time and may need extra equipment such as edge protection or scaffolding.

Is disposal included?

Asbestos waste has to go to a facility licensed to accept it. Ask your removalist whether disposal, and any clearance certificate, is included in the quote.

Do I need to know it's asbestos first?

No. Choose "Not sure" in the form. If you're unsure, it's safest to treat the material as asbestos and leave it alone until it's been checked.
