Asbestos & Hazardous Materials Surveys

What Are Asbestos & Hazardous Materials Surveys?

Asbestos and hazardous materials surveys are critical assessments conducted to identify, manage, and mitigate the risks associated with dangerous substances in residential, commercial, and industrial properties. These surveys ensure compliance with health and safety regulations while safeguarding workers, occupants, and the surrounding environment from exposure to harmful materials.

At Raw Earth Environmental, we specialise in comprehensive asbestos and hazardous materials surveys, helping businesses and developers adhere to Australian safety standards and minimise potential risks on their sites.

Why Are These Surveys Important?

The presence of asbestos or other hazardous materials poses significant health risks, including respiratory illnesses and long-term conditions such as mesothelioma. Identifying these materials is essential for:

  • Health & Safety: Protecting workers and occupants from exposure to airborne fibres or toxic substances.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Meeting Australian Work Health and Safety (WHS) regulations to avoid fines and project delays.
  • Risk Management: Reducing liability by ensuring all hazardous materials are identified and safely managed before site activities commence.

Our Asbestos & Hazardous Materials Surveys

At Raw Earth Environmental, we offer detailed and reliable surveys to identify and manage hazardous materials across all property types:

Asbestos Identification

Our experts thoroughly inspect properties to locate and assess the condition of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). If suspected materials are identified, we conduct bulk sampling and laboratory analysis to confirm the presence of asbestos and determine its risk level.

Hazardous Material Detection

We identify and assess hazardous materials such as lead-based paints, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and other toxic substances. By evaluating the potential risks these materials pose, we ensure proper management and develop safe handling and removal plans.

Risk Assessments

Our team delivers detailed reports that outline the location, type, and condition of hazardous materials found on-site. These reports include actionable recommendations for safe handling, removal, and disposal, tailored to the unique requirements of each project.

Pre-Demolition & Pre-Renovation Surveys

Before any demolition or renovation begins, we conduct mandatory surveys to ensure all hazardous materials are identified and managed. This proactive approach prevents contamination of surrounding areas and protects workers and the public from exposure to harmful substances..
