Asbestos Removal Edithvale

Edithvale grew from a beachside getaway into a busy family suburb, and many of its older homes and additions were built with fibro sheeting. If you are renovating, rebuilding or just replacing an old fence, it pays to know what you are dealing with.

We test, remove and dispose of asbestos for Edithvale homes and businesses, and every quote is free. Call 0410 336 410 to talk through your job.

Edithvale’s beach houses and fibro homes

Edithvale is part of the City of Kingston, on the bay between Aspendale and Chelsea. Before World War II it was a popular summer destination, with Melburnians catching the train down to swim and holiday by the beach. Over time, holiday houses became permanent homes, and the post-war decades brought more family housing across the suburb. Today many original homes are being replaced by larger new builds, particularly close to the beach.

That history of modest, quickly built houses means fibro is common. In Edithvale we often find asbestos cement in:

  • external wall cladding on older weatherboard and fibro homes
  • eaves linings and soffits exposed to salt air
  • bathroom and laundry wall sheets
  • sleepouts, bungalows and enclosed verandahs
  • fences, sheds and garages

Typical jobs around Edithvale

A lot of our Edithvale work is clearing asbestos before a knockdown rebuild, removing fibro cladding ahead of a recladding job, and taking down old fences between neighbours. Our asbestos wall removal and asbestos fence removal pages explain how those jobs run.

Council and disposal rules

Asbestos cannot be put in household bins or left out for hard rubbish. In Victoria, it must be wrapped, labelled and taken to a site licensed or permitted to accept asbestos waste. A licensed removalist is required for any friable asbestos and for more than 10 square metres of non-friable asbestos. We take care of wrapping, transport and paperwork through our asbestos disposal service.

Practical advice

Sea air and years of weather can leave old fibro brittle and cracked, so avoid pressure washing, sanding or breaking it. If a storm has damaged sheeting, keep people and pets away from the broken pieces and get it checked. Get a free quote and we can help, whether it is a small repair or a full clear out.

Knockdown rebuilds near the beach in Edithvale

Many Edithvale owners are replacing original beach houses with new family homes. Before an older house can be demolished, the asbestos in it needs to be identified and removed by a licensed removalist. This is usually a separate stage that happens before the demolition contractor arrives.

The process is simple. First, an asbestos inspection identifies what is in the house, from wall cladding and eaves to bathroom sheeting and the roof over the garage. Then we plan the removal, including any asbestos roof removal, and take the waste to a licensed site. Once the site is cleared, your builder can start demolition without asbestos in the mix.

Because we are based in neighbouring Chelsea Heights, Edithvale is close to home for us, which makes site visits and planning straightforward. Get a free quote for your rebuild.

Asbestos removal in Edithvale: common questions

Is my old Edithvale beach house likely to contain asbestos?

Quite possibly. Holiday houses and post-war homes along this part of the bay were often built or extended with fibro sheeting, which commonly contains asbestos if made before the mid 1980s. Cladding, eaves, wet areas and sleepouts are the usual places. Testing will confirm it.

Does salt air make asbestos sheeting more dangerous?

Weather and salt air can make old sheeting brittle and cracked over time, which increases the chance of it breaking when disturbed. Sheeting in good condition that is left alone is lower risk. If yours is damaged, avoid touching it and have it assessed before any repairs.

What do I need to do before demolishing my Edithvale home?

The asbestos in the building should be identified and removed by a licensed removalist before demolition. We can inspect the house, remove the asbestos as a separate stage and dispose of it at a licensed site, so the demolition can go ahead on a cleared site.

Can I leave broken fibro out for Kingston hard rubbish?

No. Asbestos is not accepted in hard rubbish or household bins. It must be wrapped, labelled and taken to a site licensed or permitted to accept asbestos waste. If storm damage has broken some sheeting, we can collect and dispose of it properly.

Asbestos Testing and Inspection in Edithvale

Plenty of Edithvale homes started life as simple beach houses and were added to over many years, often with whatever materials were cheap at the time. That makes it hard to tell asbestos cement from newer fibre cement just by looking. Our testing service takes samples of suspect materials, such as cladding, eaves or bathroom sheeting, and sends them to a NATA accredited laboratory. For a renovation, sale or rebuild, a full inspection records where asbestos is likely to be and its condition across the property. It gives you a clear plan, so the asbestos can be dealt with before any building work begins.
