Why Northern Gold Coast Homes are at Risk
The Northern Gold Coast, including suburbs such as Coomera and Pimpama, has seen rapid residential and commercial development on former farmland. Many of these areas previously contained farm sheds, silos, and outbuildings made from asbestos cement. Disturbing the soil during site preparation or landscaping can uncover legacy asbestos materials, posing a risk to workers and future residents. Soil testing is essential to identify and manage these hidden hazards before construction or renovation begins.
Older residential homes, particularly in Helensvale, built during the 1980s, often contain bonded asbestos products in walls, eaves, and roofing. While bonded asbestos is more stable than friable types, cutting, drilling, or removal can release fibres. Renovations, extensions, or maintenance work on these properties can disturb asbestos if it is not properly identified. Independent inspections and testing provide accurate results and guide safe management.
