Built In The Peak Years
- Soffits are easy to miss. Flat eaves boards from the 1950s and 1960s were often asbestos cement, and are disturbed when gutters or fascias are replaced.
- Bathroom ceilings come up in renovations. Old ceiling boards in wet rooms are commonly found when a bathroom is redone, and need containment.
- Sebenza roofs are mid-sized. Many units are a few hundred square metres, just under the size where industrial rates apply.
Before You Renovate
Edenvale owners usually find asbestos when they start a renovation, not before. Sampling the soffits, ceilings and outbuilding roofs before builders arrive avoids a stop-work halfway through the job, when the contractor has already priced the build and the site is open. A removal done first, with a clearance certificate, lets the builder work normally and keeps the cost of the asbestos separate from the renovation budget.

Compare Edenvale QuotesFrequently Asked Questions
Are Edenvale eaves likely to contain asbestos?
In houses from the 1950s and 1960s they often do. A sample before gutters or fascias are changed confirms it.
Should I test before renovating my Edenvale house?
Yes. Testing first avoids a stop-work during the build and lets you price the removal separately.
Is a bathroom ceiling a big job?
It is small in area but needs containment and clearance testing, so it costs more per square metre than a roof.
Do Sebenza units get industrial rates?
Only above about 500 square metres. Smaller units are priced between domestic and industrial rates.
