Asbestos Removal Bondi Junction

Bondi Junction and the surrounding Eastern Suburbs contain significant quantities of asbestos in apartment buildings and houses from the 1940s–1980s. Common locations include bathroom and kitchen wall linings, eave boards on older homes, and asbestos-backed vinyl flooring in apartments.

Our team is experienced in working in the multi-storey apartment buildings common in Bondi Junction, with proper containment procedures to protect other residents during removal works.

Bondi Junction is dominated by walk-up apartment blocks from the 1960s and 1970s, along with commercial buildings and a shrinking number of original semis and cottages. In the flats, asbestos typically appears in bathroom and laundry wall sheeting, in the packing under floor coverings, in meter boxes and service cupboards, and in the eaves and roof sheeting of the building itself. Balcony infills and enclosed drying areas added years after construction are another regular find.

In a strata building the material is rarely inside one lot alone, which changes how a job is run. We identify what belongs to the lot and what belongs to common property, provide documentation the owners corporation can rely on, and coordinate access through the building manager so lifts, stairs and car parks are protected. Removals are timed to cause the least disruption to other residents, and waste never sits in a shared bin area.

Owners planning a bathroom or kitchen renovation in a Bondi Junction unit should get the asbestos question settled before the strata application goes in. Knowing what is there, and having it removed and cleared by a licensed contractor, avoids the common situation where a renovation is halted mid-job because a stripped-out wall turns out to be asbestos cement. We provide a clearance certificate on completion, which is usually what the owners corporation wants on file.
