Why Asbestos Testing Matters
Without proper identification, renovation or demolition work on older buildings can release dangerous fibres, exposing workers and occupants to serious health risks.
Asbestos testing helps you:
- Identify asbestos-containing materials before work begins, protecting workers and the public
- Comply with WHS legislation and avoid significant penalties or work stoppages
- Plan demolition or refurbishment projects with accurate material inventories
- Make informed decisions during property transactions or building management

When Asbestos Testing May Be Required
Asbestos testing is typically required when asbestos-containing materials may be present, and the information needed to manage the risk isn’t available or reliable. It’s commonly undertaken:
Before refurbishment or demolition works, particularly in older buildings or structures
- Prior to maintenance or services penetration (e.g. drilling, cutting, ceiling works) where materials may be disturbed
- During property acquisition or divestment as part of environmental due diligence
- When suspect materials are identified on site and need confirmation before works proceed
- After asbestos removal, where air monitoring and a clearance inspection may be required before reoccupation or handover
If you’re unsure whether testing is required, EGA can advise on your obligations and the most appropriate assessment approach.
