Do you need emergency asbestos removal?

February 14, 2023

Whether you’ve just discovered asbestos on site or you need immediate safe asbestos disposal, our professional emergency asbestos removal service can help.

Asbestos is an incredibly dangerous substance that is surprisingly common in New Zealand homes and businesses – in particular those built before the year 2000.

In most cases, homeowners, property managers and business owners plan for asbestos testing and removal as part of organised repairs, renovations, and demolitions. However in some cases, asbestos removal or disposal is necessary on a last-minute basis.

That’s why PRO Environmental Services offers a special 24/7 emergency asbestos removal service, which can make a huge difference for property owners who need to remove this dangerous substance as quickly as possible.

Emergency asbestos removal

In some cases, you might receive a positive test result from your asbestos inspection, and need to remove the asbestos as soon as possible in order to carry on using the property safely, or in order to continue with planned work such as a renovation or demolition.

In other cases, you may be aware of asbestos on your property, but know that it is contained and therefore safe. However, if something happens that exposes the asbestos, it can be an emergency to get it removed immediately. This could occur in case of an earthquake or other disaster or incident that exposes previously contained asbestos materials.

Should you need emergency asbestos removal, our team can quickly and efficiently work to remove both friable and non-friable asbestos from your property. Our two decades of experience means we know how to get these jobs done as quickly as possible without putting anyone at risk.

Emergency asbestos disposal and management

Some property owners will require emergency asbestos disposal. This can occur when they organise their own team to test and remove the asbestos from the building itself, but aren’t sure how to safely take the materials away from the site and dispose of them according to all New Zealand health and safety laws.

The PRO Environmental Services team is on hand for such emergencies, even if another team has done the actual removal work.

Simply give us a call, day or night, and we’ll be on site as soon as feasibly possible to safely pick up and dispose of any asbestos containing materials from your site.
