Asbestos-ContaminatedSoil Removal

Assessment coordination, excavation, removal and disposal of asbestos-contaminated soil, with controls appropriate to the site. Servicing Brisbane, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast.

What We Do

Contaminated Soil, Handled Properly

Asbestos-contaminated soil turns up more often than most people expect — old buried sheeting, fragments left behind after a demolition, dumping on a block, or soil mixed with asbestos debris around an older home. It can't simply be dug up and taken to the tip.

We manage the whole process: coordinating the assessment, planning the controls the site needs, excavating and removing the affected soil, and disposing of it lawfully at a licensed facility — with the paperwork to show it was done right.

Every site is different. A small backyard hotspot needs different controls to a large development block, and we plan the work to suit the site, the surrounding properties and your project timeline.

Our Process Covers

Assessment coordination — sampling and testing arranged with a qualified hygienist
Controls appropriate to the site, including containment and dust suppression
Controlled excavation of asbestos-contaminated soil
Removal and transport of soil by licensed carriers
Disposal at a licensed facility, with waste tracking documentation
Validation and clearance documentation on completion

Licensed, Insured & Documented

Asbestos-contaminated soil has to be handled under the same licensing and disposal rules as any other asbestos work in Queensland. We're fully licensed and insured, and we follow the correct procedures on every site — no shortcuts, no grey areas.

You'll receive the documentation that proves the soil was removed and disposed of lawfully, which matters if you're building, selling, or dealing with a council or regulator.
