Asbestos in Hillsborough homes

Hillsborough, Lynfield and Mount Roskill were developed mainly from the 1950s to the 1970s – peak years for Decramastic tile roofs, Super Six roofing and asbestos cement soffits and cladding. Many homes sit on sloping sections with steep, tricky roof access, so experience matters when an asbestos roof needs to come off safely.

Removal and a new roof in one project

We set up scaffolding and edge protection, remove the asbestos roof in sections, wrap and dispose of it, and install your new roof with our own crew. One company, one quote, one project.

Where we commonly find asbestos in Hillsborough

  • 1950s–70s family homes on sloping sections
  • Decramastic and Super Six roofs
  • Asbestos cement soffits and cladding
  • Basement garages and workshops

Is it safe to remove an asbestos roof on a steep section?

Yes, with the right setup. We use scaffolding, edge protection and controlled lowering of wrapped sheets so nothing is dropped or broken.

Does my 1970s Auckland house have asbestos?

It’s likely. WorkSafe advises that any home built before 1 January 2000 may contain asbestos. In 1950s–90s Auckland homes we commonly find it in roofing, cladding, soffits, textured ceilings, vinyl flooring and wet-area linings.

Can I remove asbestos myself in New Zealand?

Up to 10 m² of non-friable asbestos can be removed without a licence by a competent person, but you must control dust and dispose of it correctly. Any friable asbestos, and more than 10 m² of non-friable asbestos in a job, must be removed by a WorkSafe-licensed removalist.

How much does asbestos removal cost?

Every property is different. Price depends on the area, type of asbestos, roof pitch and height, access, condition, the containment required, disposal, and whether you want a replacement roof or cladding. See our cost guide, or upload photos for a free estimate.
