We provide comprehensive services for asbestos inspections, surveys or audits on all commercial, industrial and residential properties with the aim to identify all possible asbestos containing products on site.
If asbestos is confirmed but stable, then a re-inspection will be required at least every five years for all commercial and industrial sites. If any asbestos identified is not in pristine condition, recommendations will be reported to cover all remedial works in order to reduce or eliminate any risks.
We offer discounted rates for your re-inspection when you re-book your services with us, and we can provide you with a reminder when you are due for re-inspection after our initial consultation.
There are two main types of asbestos materials; bonded (non-friable), and non-bonded (friable). A bonded asbestos product in good condition does not usually present much risk while intact.
Friable asbestos, however, can be easily broken down by hand and crumbled into pieces and usually has a very high fiber content. When this material is broken or damaged, it allows minute asbestos particles and fibers to become airborne, which poses significant risks, such as cancer, especially in the lungs and stomach.

Unlike Asbestos cement boards, which are durable, stable and relatively safe when intact, LDB may not be. Most buildings that contain LDB were most likely built before 1983 when its use was phased out.
LDB is hazardous, and can contain up to 70% asbestos fibre. It is a soft material that can be indented with the firm application of a fingernail, and it may be difficult to identify whether a product is LDB, or other construction material without laboratory analysis.
This makes it vital that the board be identified by asbestos specialists like the team here at AHI Asbestos Consultants. The unstable or “friable” nature of this board, can present significant health risks when someone is exposed to, or inhales the fibres or dust of this product.
Due to this risk, this material must be removed by licenced asbestos removalists under federal and state SafeWork laws and regulations.
