Licensed Asbestos Removalists in Australian Capital Territory

Asbestos Removal in Australian Capital Territory

Asbestos removal in the Australian Capital Territory is regulated by WorkSafe ACT under the Work Health and Safety Act 2011. All removalists operating in the ACT must hold a current asbestos removal licence issued by the national regulator, Comcare, or the relevant state authority where they are based. The ACT has a significant number of homes built between the 1940s and 1980s, particularly across suburbs like Weston Creek, Belconnen, and Tuggeranong, many of which contain asbestos cement products in roofing, eaves, and wet areas. The territory was also affected by the Mr Fluffy loose-fill asbestos insulation program, which led to the demolition of over 1,000 homes under the ACT Government's Loose Fill Asbestos Insulation Eradication Scheme. If you suspect asbestos in your Canberra property, always engage a licensed removalist. Use the filters below to find a licensed removalist near you.
