Does My Insulation Contain Asbestos?
Insulation Removal: Loose filled asbestos insulation is made up of ground raw materials. Usually found in houses built in the 1960s and 1970s. Like all types of asbestos, the tiny fibres released into the air and inhaled can cause deadly illnesses, which takes years for any signs to appear.
Removing old insulation will prevent homeowners from health problems such as asthma and allergies. Removing old insulation will also benefit the homeowner with clean ceilings, reduced risk of fire hazards, a cleaner work environment, and maximum savings on heating costs by having appropriate and correctly fitted insulation.
At Hazardous Materials Group, we have been providing insulation removal services to residential, commercial, and industrial buildings across Queensland.
We’ve seen the anxiety our clients have gone through when wondering if their beautiful homes are contaminated with asbestos and whether or not they are putting the lives of their family and selves at risk.
If you suspect that your insulation is filled with loose asbestos fibres, then contact one of our professionals here at Hazardous Materials Group ASAP. Our team has 27+ years of experience and can ensure that any health hazards are minimised.

Our Asbestos Removal Process
Our team of asbestos specialists remove asbestos as safely as possible. We wet the material and gently spray the surface with water. We then continue this process as we remove the bonded asbestos.
It is not recommended that you remove the asbestos yourself. Asbestos removal must be carried out by a professional, otherwise you can risk exposing yourself to the material.
HM Group meets the Workplace Health and Safety laws and regulations. At Hazardous Materials Group, our work is carried out carefully and all asbestos dust is cleaned from the property.
Safety First
At Hazardous Materials Group, our team of asbestos professionals will wear protective clothing and specialised masks. This allows us to safely handle the materials. We also take the following steps to ensure the asbestos is cleared from the area, so you aren’t exposed.
1. Our contractors seal any joining areas with duct tape. This prevents asbestos becoming airborne.
2. We wipe all exposed areas with a wet rag.
3. Our contractors will clean all the furniture and carpet thoroughly.
4. We clean hard surface areas.
5. Once the area has been tested, we then move onto removing the asbestos completely from your property.
