Re: How to test asbestos in my house?

Hi @fan,

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. We're pleased to have you join us and that you are treating asbestos seriously. 

 

If your home was built or renovated before 1990, there is certainly a good chance it has asbestos. Before you start any work around the home, it is always important to find out where it is and what you need to do to protect yourself, your family and your neighbours. Here is some advice on where you might find asbestos in your home

 

The Asbestos Safety and Eradication Agency asbestossafety.gov.au has a range of resources to be asbestos safe, including how to find a licensed asbestos assessor and/or removalist in your state.

 

Hope that helps,

 

Jason
