Protect your family by ensuring your home is free from asbestos – a hazardous material commonly found in properties built before the 1990s. TechClean specialises in safe, accurate asbestos testing for residential properties, offering peace of mind and expert advice tailored to your needs.
What is Asbestos?
Asbestos is a group of naturally occurring minerals known for their durability and resistance to heat and chemicals. While it was widely used in building materials, it has since been linked to serious health risks, including lung diseases like mesothelioma. Asbestos-containing materials can release harmful fibres when disturbed, making professional testing essential.
Where Can Asbestos Be Found?
Asbestos may be hiding in unexpected places in your home, including:
- Ceiling and wall linings
- Vinyl flooring
- Exterior cladding and soffits
- Roof tiles and guttering
- Textured coatings (e.g., popcorn ceilings)
- Insulation and fireplaces
If your home was built before 2000, it’s essential to test for asbestos before renovations or repairs.
Who Should Test for Asbestos?
Testing for asbestos is crucial for a wide range of individuals and scenarios, including:
- Homeowners: Especially those planning renovations, repairs, or demolitions.
- Property Buyers: To ensure the home is safe before finalising a purchase.
- Landlords: To meet legal obligations under New Zealand’s asbestos management regulations.
- Contractors and Builders: To protect workers and comply with safety regulations during construction projects.
- Schools and Commercial Property Managers: To ensure public and workplace safety in older buildings.
- Tenants or Concerned Residents: If you suspect asbestos materials in your living space.
