Choosing a Licensed Asbestos Removalist
Asbestos work in Victoria is regulated to protect homeowners, workers, and the public. When comparing asbestos removal companies or contractors in Victoria, check that they:
- Hold the correct WorkSafe Victoria licence for the type of asbestos involved
- Carry current public liability and relevant insurance
- Lodge the required WorkSafe removal notifications where applicable
- Transport and dispose of waste at EPA Victoria licensed facilities
- Provide written quotes and disposal documentation
Friable vs Non-Friable Asbestos
Most residential asbestos is non-friable (bonded) — cement cladding, eaves, roof sheets, and fencing — where fibres are locked into a solid material. Friable asbestos, which can be crumbled by hand, is more hazardous and is subject to stricter licensing and controls in Victoria. We assess which type is present and handle it under the appropriate licence and procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a licensed asbestos removalist in Victoria?
In Victoria, removing friable asbestos and larger amounts of non-friable asbestos requires a WorkSafe Victoria licensed removalist. Even for smaller jobs, a licensed and insured contractor ensures the work, notifications, and disposal are handled correctly.
How do I check an asbestos removal company is licensed?
Ask for the company's WorkSafe Victoria licence details and proof of insurance, and confirm they provide disposal documentation. A reputable removalist will share this before quoting.
What is the difference between friable and non-friable asbestos?
Non-friable (bonded) asbestos is held in a solid material such as cement sheeting, while friable asbestos can be crumbled by hand and is more hazardous. Friable asbestos work in Victoria requires a higher class of licence and stricter controls.
