The short answer
The $250 is our entry point: an inspection with a written report.
It is not a removal price.
Licensed removal of a small area, up to about 10 m²,
usually costs $1,000 to $2,500.
Popcorn ceiling removal is quoted on site after a lab test, inc GST.
Lab testing is around $110 a sample.
If the coating contains asbestos and is friable,
the job needs a Class A setup and air monitoring.

How asbestos removal works
1.Quick chat
Tell us what you have found and where.
We ask a few plain questions and tell you straight away whether it can wait.
2.Testing if needed
If nobody knows what the material is, we take a small sample,
seal it and send it to an accredited lab. Only a lab test confirms asbestos.
3.Fixed quote
You get one written price that covers the removal, wrapping and disposal.
No surprise extras once the job starts.
4.Neighbours given notice
Before work starts we let the people next door know what is happening, when,
and how long it will take.
5.SafeWork NSW notified
For licensed removal,
SafeWork NSW is notified 5 calendar days before work starts,
as the rules require.
6.Removal
The area is sealed off,
sheets come out whole where possible and are kept damp,
then double wrapped on the spot.
7.Independent clearance
Someone independent of the removal crew inspects the area before you use it
again, and you get the clearance paperwork.
8.Licensed disposal
Waste goes to a licensed facility and you receive the disposal paperwork for
your records.
Popcorn ceilings pricing questions
Why is friable removal so much more?
Friable work needs a full enclosure, a Class A setup,
air monitoring and a licensed assessor for clearance.
It is a bigger job for good reason.
What if only one room has it?
Each room is tested and priced on its own. One room is common.
Do your prices include GST?
Yes. Every price on this site includes GST.
Is disposal included?
Disposal is in every removal quote, shown as its own line so you can see it.
It is quoted on site because it depends on weight and volume.
Can I pay by card?
Yes. Card payments are processed securely by Stripe.
