Frequently asked questions
What’s the difference between friable asbestos and non-friable asbestos?
Friable asbestos refers to asbestos-containing, dry materials that can be easily crumbled into powder. This poses a higher health risk since the fibres are more easily inhaled.
In contrast, non-friable asbestos is embedded within solid materials, making it less likely to be disturbed or damaged. Examples include bonded asbestos found in fibre cement sheeting or vinyl floor tiles.
How do you remove asbestos-containing material in spaces with high foot traffic?
We operate efficiently and safely, minimising disruption to foot traffic and the use of your space. We collaborate with you to develop an asbestos removal and disposal plan that meets your needs and the specific requirements of your site.

Our team at GBAR Group work closely with EPA-approved facilities to ensure that disposal is handled cleanly and thoroughly with the utmost care and safety precautions. Our asbestos removal management Sydney services include all aspects of disposal and transport, so you don’t have to worry.
What should I do if I suspect asbestos contamination in my soil?
Asbestos-tainted soil requires specialised handling. If you suspect contamination, contact us immediately. In the meantime, it is recommended that you close off the contaminated area and ensure no people or animals go near it.
We’ll conduct a thorough inspection of the area where the asbestos has been identified and create a plan for safe removal and remediation of the soil.
What is the asbestos removal cost?
Asbestos removal cost depends on your space and the amount of asbestos that needs to be removed. Our team will conduct an inspection to identify asbestos and provide you with an estimated quote, allowing you to proceed on your own terms and within your time frame.
What do you use as a reference to identify asbestos?
We use the Asbestos Product Guide, developed by the Asbestos and Silica Safety and Eradication Agency (ASSEA). Industry professionals use This government-approved guide to accurately and quickly identify asbestos.
