Wellington Asbestos Testing

Asbestos Testing Wellington

We offer asbestos testing  Wellington, which involves identifying the presence of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) in buildings, especially those constructed before the 1990s. Asbestos is once commonly used for insulation, roofing, and flooring for buildings built prior to 1990s. However, asbestos also poses serious health risks when its fibers become airborne and are inhaled. In Wellington, many buildings have been built before the 1990s which is why asbestos testing is very important – especially prior to a big demolition project.

What we do:

  • Bulk sample analysis conducted in an IANZ-accredited (ISO/IEC 17025) laboratory.
  • Sample analysis follows the AS4964(2004) standard method for identifying asbestos in bulk materials.
  • Dust swab sample testing.
  • Air quality monitoring performed in an IANZ-accredited (ISO/IEC 17025) laboratory.
  • Comprehensive reports provided, detailing key findings and risk-based recommendations

Regular asbestos testing is vital for both residential and commercial property owners to protect occupants and workers from asbestos exposure. If you need Wellington asbestos testing team, you can rely on us.

Requirements For Building Owners

Building owners and employers are legally obligated to identify and manage asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) within their properties. The 2019 Amendment to the Residential Tenancies Act clarifies that asbestos is considered a contaminant, with breaches potentially leading to exemplary damages of up to $4,000.

Under the Asbestos Regulations, any asbestos likely to be disturbed during refurbishment or demolition must be identified and removed, so far as is reasonably practicable, before work begins. Let our qualified assessors ensure your property remains safe and compliant.
