The Dangers of Asbestos in Commercial Properties
The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare reports that an estimated 4,000 people die each year from asbestos-related diseases in the country. Recognising the dangers of asbestos is highly important. Here’s what to know:
Airborne Contamination
The tiny fibres are easily inhaled. This invisible danger can cause long-term health issues for anyone exposed.
Serious Health Risks
Exposure to asbestos fibres can lead to severe and fatal health conditions. This includes lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis. The lung cancer risk from breathing in asbestos also rises greatly if you also smoke.
Legal and Financial Liabilities
Failing to manage asbestos properly can lead to severe penalties. In NSW, fines can reach up to $3,600 for individuals and $18,000 for businesses. More serious breaches could result in even higher penalties or legal action.
Operational Disruptions
Asbestos-related incidents can interrupt your business operations. This leads to unexpected downtime and loss of revenue.
Reputation Damage
Mishandling asbestos can damage your company’s reputation. News of health risks or safety violations can deter potential clients and tenants. This makes it challenging to build trust and maintain your brand’s image.

Spot the Signs: Does Your Commercial Property Contain Asbestos?
High-Risk Areas in Older Buildings
Older buildings built before 1990 are most at risk. Our team of Asbestos professionals will thoroughly inspect these spots to detect the presence of any asbestos:
- Roofing & Siding: Old roofing sheets, shingles, and exterior panels are prime suspects.
- Pipe Insulation: Aging insulation around pipes, boilers, and ducts often contains asbestos.
- Ceiling & Floor Tiles: Cement sheets, vinyl tiles, and dense flooring materials could be contaminated.
- Carpet Underlays: Older hessian bag underlays and adhesive residues may contain asbestos.
- Walls & Plaster: Joint compounds, textured paints, and plaster coatings are common asbestos culprits.
- Adhesives: Cutback, cement, duct, fibrous, mastic adhesives, and sealants can all be contaminated.
Degrading or Damaged Materials
Crumbling walls, cracked tiles, or deteriorating insulation are more than just signs of wear and tear, they could indicate the presence of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). Don’t touch or disturb these materials.

Had Prior Renovations Without an Asbestos Check?
If your property has undergone renovations or refurbishments without proper assessment, there’s a risk that asbestos is present and left unmanaged.
Don’t leave asbestos risks to chance. Whether it’s signs of damage or past renovations without checks, professional help is the safest route. Reach out to us and arrange an inspection.
When is an Asbestos Report Required for Commercial Property?
- Before any demolition, renovation, or major refurbishment of buildings constructed prior to 1990.
- During property purchase or lease to assess potential liabilities.
- For existing properties with asbestos-containing materials. This ensures the maintenance of an up-to-date asbestos record and management plan.
Our Expert Process for Commercial Asbestos Removals in Sydney
Asbestos Risk Assessment
Before any removal work, we conduct a detailed asbestos risk assessment in line with the requirements of the Work Health and Safety (WHS) Regulations 2011. This ensures every inspection follows the safety procedures outlined in the Code of Practice for the Safe Removal of Asbestos.
Custom Removal Plan
Based on the inspection, we create a customised removal plan tailored to your property’s specific needs. This includes safety measures, containment strategies, and a timeline that fits your schedule.
Asbestos Management Plan (AMP)
For properties where complete removal is not feasible, we create an asbestos management plan (AMP). This document outlines procedures for safely managing asbestos-containing materials on-site. It includes regular monitoring, risk assessments, and recommended control measures to prevent exposure. The AMP ensures that your property complies with the commercial building compliance requirements.
Safe Removal and Disposal
Our team follows strict safety protocols to remove asbestos, preventing fibre release into the environment. We then transport all materials to licensed disposal facilities. We ensure compliance with environmental regulations.
Post-Removal Inspection and Clearance
After removal, we conduct a detailed inspection and air quality testing to confirm that the area is free from asbestos contamination. We issue a clearance certificate, confirming that the site is safe for reoccupation.
Commercial Building Compliance for When Things Change
We help you navigate evolving compliance requirements by ensuring your property adheres to local and national standards. We conduct compliance audits when your environment changes in a way that might elevate risks, and provide documentation to support your building’s adherence to these regulations. This proactive approach minimises legal and financial risks, protects occupants’ health, and helps maintain a safe working environment.
