Correct work category first

Different asbestos products require different removal routes

Non-licensed work

Lower-risk tasks where material, condition and method support the non-licensed route and competent controls are applied.

Notifiable non-licensed work

Certain higher-risk non-licensed tasks require notification and additional worker and record requirements.

Licensable work

Higher-risk work involving materials such as significant AIB, sprayed coating or lagging disturbance requires an appropriately licensed contractor.

Project planning

Price the access, segregation, waste and handback as well as the asbestos

Access and occupation

Roofs, hotels, live commercial premises, industrial plants and remote sites can require additional access or phasing.

Analytical support

Air monitoring and four-stage clearance are scoped where required by the work category and enclosure arrangements.

Waste and completion

Packaging, transport, disposal, cleaning, handover evidence and reinstatement should be clear before work begins.

After a survey

Finding asbestos does not automatically mean remove everything

Materials in sound condition and unlikely to be disturbed may sometimes remain safely managed. Removal becomes appropriate where the material is damaged, cannot be reliably protected, conflicts with the planned work or presents an unacceptable ongoing management risk.
