High Risk Asbestos Suburbs Sunshine Coast

If your property is in one of these high risk suburbs, you may need friable or bonded asbestos removal. Save the hassle & get A & B-class licensed professionals in who can also do roof removal and replacement.

Coastal Character and Redevelopment Hotspots

Suburbs: Moffat Beach, Shelly Beach, Dicky Beach, Kings Beach (Caloundra area), and Tewantin.

These areas were home to the quintessential Queensland “seaside shack,” often built between the 1940s and 1970s using inexpensive and often recycled materials, including high concentrations of fibro cement.

1970s–1980s Mass Expansion Corridors 

Suburbs: Kawana Waters (including Currimundi, Aroona, Battery Hill), parts of Maroochydore, and Buderim.

Properties in these areas were typically built using standard volume housing designs of the era, which relied heavily on ACMs for cost-effective completion. 

Hinterland and Established Commercial Centres

Suburbs: Nambour, Eumundi, Beerwah, Glass House Mountains.

These areas contain older, diverse stock, including original timber dwellings and older commercial structures. The risk profile here is diverse, encompassing early post-war housing and potentially specialised industrial or commercial applications of ACMs (e.g., pipe lagging, spray-on fireproofing) not commonly found in suburban residential stock.

Is your Sunshine Coast home hiding a dangerous secret?

Many beautiful older homes in suburbs like Caloundra, Maroochydore, and Nambour contain high-risk asbestos materials (especially roofing and fibro).

With the Coast’s heavy rainfall and weather events, damaged asbestos can become friable and deadly.
