    Asbestos removal for Ipswich heritage homes, flood repairs and commercial buildings

    Ipswich is Queensland's oldest provincial city, about 30 kilometres south-west of Brisbane, with a heritage centre, a very large number of pre-1946 homes and a long history of coal mining, the North Ipswich railway workshops and manufacturing. Many of its older timber homes and commercial buildings have been altered, repaired and flood-restored over the decades.

    Original timber structures rarely contain asbestos, but later alterations often do: fibro additions, enclosed verandahs, bathroom and laundry linings, eaves, roof sheeting and sheds, while older commercial and industrial buildings can have asbestos cement roofs and cladding. Ipswich has also had ten major floods since 1893, including January 2011, and flood repairs are a common time to uncover old linings and sheeting. Asbestos wasn't banned nationally until 31 December 2003.

    T&L can inspect, test and remove asbestos from heritage-style homes where original features need care, as well as sheds, roofs and commercial buildings, with approved disposal and paperwork.

    Tek came within 24 hours (and on a Sunday). I didn’t end up having asbestos and so he didn’t charge me a cent. Lovely guy and very honest. Thanks again Tek!

    I highly recommend anyone that needs asbestos removal to go with Tek and his team over at T & L. Tek was extremely informative and answered any questions I had. Best of all, Tek was very responsive and replied to me as soon as he could. Their prices are extremely competitive (I could not find any asbestos removal companies that were at or near the same price as Tek!). Tek and his team were very punctual the quoting and removal appointments. Tek and his team diligently removed asbestos from our kitchen and bathroom (see photos). There was no mess left behind.

    Common places for asbestos in Ipswich homes and businesses

    If a building in Ipswich was built or altered before 2004, these are the spots to be careful with before you cut, drill, sand or knock anything down.

    In homes and sheds

    • Fibro additions and enclosed verandahs on older timber homes
    • Bathroom, laundry and kitchen wall linings
    • Eaves, soffits and old roof sheeting
    • Garages, sheds and workers'-cottage outbuildings
    • Fibro fencing and garden structures
    • Flood-damaged linings and floor coverings in older homes

    Often hiding in later additions and flood repairs to older homes.

    In shops, warehouses and industrial sites

    • Roof sheeting and cladding on older shops, warehouses and workshops
    • Ceiling tiles and wall panels in heritage-era commercial buildings
    • Plant rooms, pipe lagging and switchboard backing
    • Industrial buildings linked to manufacturing and rail history
    • Material disturbed during flood repairs, fit-outs and demolition

    Plan removal before any restoration, fit-out or demolition.

    Ipswich asbestos removal: common questions

    Is asbestos common in older Ipswich homes?

    It's most often in later additions and repairs, such as fibro bathrooms, enclosed verandahs, eaves and garages, rather than the original timber structure.

    I'm repairing a flood-affected property in Ipswich. Should I test for asbestos first?

    Yes. Strip-outs and repairs can disturb old linings and sheeting. We inspect and test suspect material first and remove it safely if it's asbestos.

    Can you replace insulation after asbestos removal in Ipswich?

    Yes. We install Earthwool insulation and also remove old cellulose insulation, so you can finish the job with one team.

    How much does asbestos removal cost in Ipswich?

    The cost depends on how much asbestos there is, whether it is bonded (like cement sheeting) or friable, how easy the site is to access, the roof height and the disposal required. We inspect first and give you a written quote with no obligation.

    Do you service Ipswich and nearby suburbs?

    Yes. We service Ipswich, North Ipswich, Booval, Goodna, Redbank Plains, Springfield and the wider region.

    Is it safe to leave asbestos where it is?

    Sometimes. Material in good condition that is sealed and won't be disturbed can often stay in place. Damaged or crumbling material, or anything about to be drilled, cut or demolished, should be assessed and removed by a licensed contractor.

    Do I need to leave the property while you work?

    It depends on the job, but we ask you to stay clear of the work zone. Before we start we'll tell you whether you should be off site for the day.
