Removal & Disposal of Asbestos
Asbestos is extremely hazardous and must only be removed by a licensed asbestos removalist who holds an ‘A’ class certificate. The costs involved with the removal and disposal of asbestos are dependent on a number of factors:
- The type of asbestos
- How much needs to be removed
- Where the asbestos is located and is it easily accessible
- The distance from the property to the disposal facility
So you are not left with unforseen costs when purchasing a new property it is essential that you have an asbestos audit carried out before going unconditional on the new property. With the audit you can assess how much asbestos is contained in the property and how much it will cost to have removed. If you decide to go forwards without auditing a new property than you may be taking on a potentially huge liability as the responsibility is passed onto you, the new owner, to remove or maintain the asbestos. Many sellers are now removing asbestos before putting property on the market as it is a major deterrent for most people.
