Why Is Asbestos So Common In Auckland’s Houses and Roofs?

Asbestos was widely used in New Zealand and in homes built prior to the mid-1980’s, but asbestos regulations banning the import and export of asbestos products were only brought in during 2016. Asbestos was once popular due to its fibrous nature and heat-resistance, but we now know that it is a very dangerous and highly toxic substance.

Why Is Asbestos So Dangerous to Remove?

Asbestos is a health hazard and there is no safe level of exposure. Asbestos can be damaged during renovations such as drilling, cutting, and foot traffic over the roof, causing the fine dust particles to become airborne. General wear and tear will also cause your roof or cladding to deteriorate and asbestos will eventually be exposed, which is why it is so important to remove and replace asbestos correctly.

Using an asbestos removal professional is crucial. Asbestos removal is a risky operation and the safety of your household, and the removal team, is of the utmost importance. The removal and disposal of any roofing or cladding which contains asbestos must be carefully controlled. A specialist asbestos remover will assess the situation and formulate a customised plan to remove the material safely. Homes are usually scaffolded and shrink-wrapped for protection and only the asbestos removal specialists would be allowed on your property during this time.
