Buying a home that potentially contains asbestos?

Many homes in the North West of Western Australia were built in an era where asbestos was the premier building material.

At the time, it was believed to be an excellent and hardwearing material… fast forward and the dangers of asbestos were discovered.

Asbestos building materials ceased to be used in construction from the late 1980’s, however homes built from the 1930’s onwards have a chance of containing asbestos.

There are some wonderful properties that pop up for sale in the North West, but there is no way of knowing what it might cost you to remove the asbestos within the building.

You are able to commission North West Asbestos Solutions to:

  • Provide an estimate as to what the asbestos may cost to remove

  • Execute testing (with the correct permissions) to find out just how much asbestos the home may contain

Please get in touch with us on 08 9948 1206 or info@northwestasbestos.com if you are unsure about a home you are interested in purchasing.
