Asbestos Clearance Inspections & Certificates

 An Asbestos Clearance Certificate confirms that a residential area where asbestos has been removed is safe to re-enter and occupy.

It is issued after a:

• Detailed visual inspection
   
• Surface cleanliness check
   
• Confirmation that no visible asbestos or asbestos dust remains
   

This certificate is commonly required by:

• Homeowners
   
• Builders
   
• Real estate agents
   
• Insurance companies

 Under NSW regulations, a clearance certificate is required when:

• More than 10m² of asbestos sheeting has been removed, and
   
• The work was required to be performed by a Class B licensed asbestos removalist
   

This applies to most:

• Bathroom renovations
   
• Kitchen renovations
   
• Roof sheet removals
   
• Eave, wall and cladding removals
