Apartments, flats and older buildings

St Kilda has one of the densest mixes of housing in Melbourne. Victorian terraces and mansions sit beside interwar apartment blocks and the many walk up flats built during the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s. Those post-war flats, along with renovations made to older buildings in the same era, are where asbestos is most often found in St Kilda.

Common asbestos locations in St Kilda homes

  • Bathroom and kitchen wall linings in older flats
  • Vinyl floor tiles and sheet vinyl backing
  • Electrical meter boards in common areas
  • Eaves, balconies and infill panels on flat blocks
  • Rear lean to additions on terraces

Working in a busy inner bayside suburb

Asbestos removal in St Kilda brings its own challenges. Many jobs are inside apartments with shared stairwells, limited parking and neighbours on the other side of the wall. We plan each job to keep fibres contained within the work area, protect common spaces and carry waste out wrapped and sealed.

The most frequent requests we receive here are asbestos bathroom removal and asbestos kitchen removal in apartments being updated. Owners corporations and building managers also call on us for asbestos testing before common area works. Shops, cafes and offices along the suburb’s commercial strips are covered as well, including refits of older tenancies.

For short stay and rental apartments, we can often complete smaller removals quickly so the property is back in use sooner. Every job still follows the same process of containment, wrapping, labelling and disposal at a permitted site, whatever its size.

Council and what to do first

The suburb sits within the City of Port Phillip. We also work in Elwood, Balaclava, Ripponlea, South Melbourne and Albert Park. If you rent, speak to your landlord or agent before any work, and if you own an apartment, check with your owners corporation, since works affecting common property may need approval.

Before you renovate, have suspect materials tested. Victoria requires licensed removal for friable asbestos and for more than 10 square metres of non-friable asbestos. Waste must be wrapped, labelled and taken to a site that is permitted to accept it.

Aussie Asbestos Solutions is Australian owned, fully licensed, EPA (Victoria) registered and has over 25 years of experience with residential and commercial work. Get a free quote or call 0410 336 410.

Terraces and period homes in St Kilda

St Kilda’s Victorian and Edwardian homes were built long before asbestos cement became common, but many of them were altered during the twentieth century. Rear lean to additions, enclosed verandahs, updated bathrooms and laundries, and new floor coverings from the post-war decades are where asbestos tends to turn up in these older houses.

Renovating a period home here often means working on a narrow block with shared walls and little room for skips or trucks. We plan access carefully, contain the work area and carry sealed waste out through the house or laneway. Common jobs include:

  • Removing fibro lean to walls through our asbestos wall removal service
  • Clearing old bathrooms and laundries at the back of the house
  • Lifting vinyl floor tiles laid over original floorboards

Many St Kilda streets have heritage controls, so check with the City of Port Phillip about any planning requirements for external changes. Start with asbestos testing of the additions you plan to change. Get a free quote for your St Kilda terrace.

Asbestos removal in St Kilda: common questions

Do I need owners corporation approval to remove asbestos from my St Kilda apartment?

Work limited to the inside of your own apartment may not need approval, but anything that affects common property, such as external walls, shared ceilings, balconies or meter boards, usually does. Check your owners corporation rules first. We can provide a scope of works so the committee understands how the removal will be managed.

Is asbestos common in St Kilda’s 1960s flats?

Yes. Walk up flats built in St Kilda during the 1950s to 1970s often contain asbestos in bathroom and kitchen linings, vinyl floor tiles, eaves and meter boards. If the material is intact and undisturbed it is lower risk, but it should be tested before any renovation that involves cutting, drilling or removing it.

Does a Victorian terrace in St Kilda contain asbestos?

The original Victorian structure will not, as it was built before asbestos cement was used. However, many St Kilda terraces were extended or updated during the twentieth century, and those changes often included fibro sheeting, vinyl floor tiles or asbestos cement roofing. Test the rear additions, wet areas and later floor coverings before you renovate.

How do you remove asbestos from a St Kilda terrace with no rear access?

Where there is no laneway, we carry the wrapped and sealed waste out through the house along a protected path. The work area is contained first and the route is covered to limit dust and wear. We plan parking and loading ahead of time, as street space in St Kilda can be tight.

Can there be asbestos under the carpet in an older St Kilda home?

Yes. Vinyl floor tiles and sheet vinyl with an asbestos backing were often laid in kitchens, bathrooms and hallways before the mid 1980s, and later covered with carpet or floating floors. If you plan to lift the flooring or restore the original boards, have a sample of any old vinyl tested first.
