Whether you need a one-off inspection, an asbestos survey in Melbourne, or an assessment before renovations, our licensed inspectors ensure your property is safe and compliant.

At Elevate Building Inspections, we provide professional asbestos surveys across Melbourne and the north-eastern suburbs, including Doncaster, Eltham, Greensborough, Bundoora, Heidelberg, Ivanhoe, and surrounding areas.

Why Asbestos Inspections Are Important

Asbestos was commonly used in Australian buildings up until the mid-1980s. Many homes and commercial properties in Melbourne still contain asbestos in walls, ceilings, flooring, eaves, and roofing materials.

A professional asbestos inspection:

Identifies asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) on your property.
Assesses the condition and potential risks of disturbance.
Provides guidance on safe management or removal if required.
Ensures compliance with current health and safety regulations.

What Our Asbestos Inspections Include:

Our thorough asbestos inspections and surveys cover:

Internal areas – walls, ceilings, flooring, and insulation.
External areas – roofing, gutters, fences, and cladding.
Outbuildings – garages, sheds, and extensions.
Building materials – samples tested in a NATA-accredited laboratory if required.

Following the inspection, you’ll receive a clear, easy-to-understand asbestos report, outlining identified materials, risk levels, and recommendations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most frequent questions and answers about asbestos inspections

How do I know if my property has asbestos?

You can’t confirm asbestos by sight alone. Professional inspection and lab testing are the only reliable ways to identify asbestos.

Is asbestos dangerous if left undisturbed?

Asbestos in good condition is generally low risk if not disturbed. Problems arise when fibres are released during cutting, sanding, drilling, or deterioration.

Do I need an asbestos inspection before buying a property?

Yes, especially for homes built before 1990. An inspection gives peace of mind and helps you understand future management or removal costs.

Are your inspectors licensed and insured?

Yes. All our inspectors are fully qualified, licensed, and covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance for your peace of mind.

Can I remove asbestos myself?

In Victoria, only licensed asbestos removalists can safely remove and dispose of asbestos. DIY removal is unsafe and illegal for friable asbestos.

What’s included in the asbestos report?

Your report includes identified asbestos-containing materials, condition assessments, risk levels, lab results (if samples taken), and recommended actions.

Do you service my suburb?

We cover Melbourne’s north-eastern suburbs including Doncaster, Templestowe, Eltham, Diamond Creek, Bulleen, Greensborough, Bundoora, Macleod, Montmorency, Heidelberg, Rosanna, Ivanhoe, and surrounding areas.

Are your inspectors independent?

Absolutely. We provide unbiased reports — we don’t work for real estate agents or vendors. Our only obligation is to you, the buyer.

Satisfied Customers

"Ryan provided an excellent pre-property inspection service. He was very thorough and professional, arrived promptly, and is a great communicator. He made himself available to assist me every step of the way. I really appreciated his attention to detail and clear guidance. I would happily recommend his services to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy inspector."

"Marc was excellent from the moment the enquiry was made. He responded promptly and professionally and managed the process with the agent to make it stress free. The inspection was carried out in a very short timeframe and resulted in an amazingly comprehensive and thorough report within a few hours of the inspection. I would highly recommend"

"Ryan went above & beyond for my first time buying a house. The house inspection was well organised & frictionless, I didn’t have to organise anything & report was very professional. Helped me negotiate a slightly better price for my first buy, will be using him again soon. His building background & ballpark estimates were especially helpful outside of the report in gauging what the costs were gonna be for the existing issues at the property."
