Asbestos Testing NZ

If you suspect a material may contain asbestos, the safest first step is professional asbestos testing. East Coast Asbestos provides asbestos sampling and survey services to help identify potential hazards before renovation, demolition, or maintenance work begins.

Testing is especially important for older buildings where materials such as cladding, soffits, vinyl, ceilings, roofing, and linings may contain asbestos.

Very impressed with the professionalism, John gave a fair quote, well below the one other I got. The job was done fast and to a high standard. After talking to him a bit I got to know is background in asbestos removal, his experience explains his high level of workmanship. He's a good bloke and the guys he had working for him were polite and hardworking too. Definitely recommended.
