Safe, Licensed Asbestos Removal in Eltham and Surrounds
Eltham is well known for its leafy outlook, artistic community, and mix of mid-century and heritage homes. While these properties have charm and character, many were built during the decades when asbestos-containing materials were used extensively in construction.
At Myers Asbestos Removal, we specialise in safe, compliant asbestos removal for homes, schools, commercial properties, and community buildings throughout Eltham and the greater Nillumbik area. Whether you’re planning renovations, demolishing an old structure, or buying a property, we can help you identify and safely remove asbestos before it becomes a hazard.
Why Asbestos Is a Risk in Eltham Homes
In suburbs like Eltham—where many properties were built before the 1990s—it’s not uncommon to find asbestos sheeting in bathrooms, ceilings, and external cladding. Left undisturbed, this material may not pose an immediate danger. But during renovations, repairs, or demolitions, it can release dangerous fibres into the air.
Inhalation of asbestos fibres is linked to serious diseases such as:
- Mesothelioma
- Lung cancer
- Asbestosis
- Pleural thickening
Because asbestos is often hidden behind walls or paint, it’s easy to underestimate the risk. That’s why professional testing and licensed removal are so important.
Where Asbestos Hides in Eltham Properties
Over the years, we’ve inspected and removed asbestos from a wide range of homes and commercial buildings in Eltham. Common areas include:
- Bathroom and laundry walls or ceilings
- Under old vinyl floor tiles
- Behind eaves and in roof cavities
- Inside garages, sheds and fences
- Hot water pipe lagging and insulation
- Internal wall sheeting and ceiling panels
- Switchboard backings in older homes
If your property was built before 1990—or renovated between the 1960s and 1980s—it may still contain hidden asbestos.
