Asbestos Removal Hazelwood — compare quotes from registered asbestos contractors covering the area. Roof sheeting, ceilings, gutters, cladding, testing and disposal.
Many of Hazelwood’s older houses now trade as restaurants, shops and studios, and removing asbestos from a business that has to keep its doors open is a different job from clearing a family home.

| Where | Era | Usual finding |
|---|---|---|
| Houses converted to restaurants and cafés | Mid-century shells | Ceilings over dining rooms, kitchen eaves, back-of-house roofs |
| Retail and studio conversions | Largely 1950s – 1970s | Ceilings, soffits, gutters, stores |
| Remaining residential houses | 1950s – 1980s | Ceilings, garage roofs, carports |
| Added verandas and covered patios | 1970s – 1980s | Corrugated patio roofs, now often over seating |
The covered patio over outdoor seating is often the oldest add-on on a converted property and the one customers sit under every day.
Keeping The Business Trading
- After-hours and closed-day work. Contractors can schedule around trading hours, starting after close or on the day the business shuts, at a premium on labour.
- Phased by area. A patio roof one week and the back-of-house the next lets the front of the business stay open.
- Food areas need extra care. Kitchens and food stores near the work are sealed, and stock is moved out before containment goes up.
- Neighbours share the strip. Adjacent businesses and parking need to know where the exclusion zone is.
Owner Or Tenant: Who Arranges It
On a let commercial property the building owner normally holds responsibility for the structure, while the tenant controls the space and the trading hours. Agree in writing who appoints the contractor and pays, and when the premises can be handed over, before quotes come in. Fit-outs are the usual trigger here: a new tenant’s shopfitter opens a ceiling and finds boards nobody had recorded.
If a fit-out uncovers suspect boards, stop work in that area and get a sample tested. A shopfitter is not a registered asbestos contractor.

Compare Hazelwood QuotesFrequently Asked Questions
Do I have to close my restaurant for the work?
Not always. Work can be phased or done after hours, but the area being stripped must be empty until clearance.
Who pays — landlord or tenant?
It depends on the lease. Usually the owner deals with the structure, but agree it in writing before appointing anyone.
Our shopfitter found old ceiling boards. What now?
Stop work in that area, keep people out and have a sample tested. Removal goes to a registered contractor.
Can customers sit under the patio while it is being replaced?
No. The seating area under and around the patio roof is part of the exclusion zone until the work is cleared.
