Friable Asbestos House Demolition

About Friable Asbestos House Demolition

Our company conducts friable asbestos house demolition of structures in and around Queensland—specific problems and risks associated with asbestos in structures exposed to fire. Combining fire and asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) can pose unique challenges and hazards. We have a full demolition licence and a friable (class A) asbestos licence, which allows us to do jobs other competitors can’t legally do. These two licenses let us safely demolish buildings. They are fire-damaged and unsafe to enter due to asbestos and structural damage from fire.

The Steps We Follow With Friable Asbestos House Demolition

Demolishing fire-damaged asbestos structures requires careful planning and adherence to strict safety rules. This is due to the health risks of asbestos exposure. When damaged, asbestos can release airborne fibres. If inhaled, these fibres pose a serious health risk. They can cause asbestos-related diseases like lung cancer and mesothelioma. We take the following steps when demolition of fire-damaged asbestos structures: Before demolition starts, we survey the site. We identify the amount of asbestos in the building and assess its condition. We also assess the amount of fire damage. Our expert team creates a full asbestos removal plan that outlines the steps and precautions for demolition. It includes steps to contain asbestos fibres. It also has PPE requirements for our workers and waste disposal procedures. We use proper containment measures. These include plastic sheeting and negative pressure enclosures. They stop the release of asbestos fibres during removal. We remove the asbestos. Then, we demolish the fire-damaged building. We use controlled methods to reduce dust and debris and water to keep dust low. We seal materials that contain asbestos, label them for disposal as local rules require, and transport the asbestos waste to authorised disposal sites. Our team monitors air during demolition. We do this to ensure that asbestos fibres are not released. We use air sampling techniques to verify the air quality meets safety standards.

Post-Demolition Cleanup

Our professionals conduct a thorough cleanup of the demolition site. We remove any remaining debris and dispose of non-asbestos waste. Then, we do a final inspection. It ensures that all asbestos has been safely removed. After completing the process, our team keeps detailed asbestos removal and demolition records. These records include survey reports, removal plans, air monitoring results, and waste disposal records.
