This thorough preparation helps mitigate risks associated with disturbing contaminated soils, reducing project costs and time delays. Our expert assessments and remediation strategies ensure that your demolition project is executed safely and efficiently, with minimal disruption.

Occupational Hygienist Air Monitoring & Visual Clearance Certificates
Ensuring safety during asbestos removal is a top priority for Piccolo Amianto. Our asbestos removal services incorporate occupational hygienist air monitoring and visual clearance certification. Air monitoring is crucial for Class A asbestos removal projects, where friable materials pose a significant risk. Our certified occupational hygienists provide continuous air quality sampling and consultation throughout removal. Once the asbestos is safely removed, we issue an airborne fibre monitoring report and visual clearance certificate, confirming that the site is asbestos-free and safe for re-occupation. This certification protects workers and the community and ensures regulatory compliance.
Soil Remediation & Management of Contaminated Soil
Piccolo Amianto specialises in large-scale soil remediation, offering advanced mechanical screening and surface remediation to manage contaminated soil efficiently. Our innovative sieving conveyor belt system separates contaminants from clean soil, allowing for the reuse of fill and reducing the amount of material that must be transported to landfills. This not only saves time and money but also minimises the environmental impact of your project. We implement comprehensive dust management controls and air quality sampling to ensure safe and compliant remediation work. By effectively managing contaminated soil, we help prevent project delays and protect the surrounding environment.

Class A & B Asbestos Removal
Piccolo Amianto is a licensed and insured provider of Class A and Class B asbestos removal services, equipped to handle friable and non-friable materials. Understanding the type of asbestos present is crucial for determining the appropriate removal method:
Class A License
Allows removing any amount or quantity of asbestos or Asbestos Containing Material (ACM), including friable asbestos, Asbestos Containing Dust (ACD), and non-friable asbestos. Common areas where friable asbestos is found include pipe insulation, rope gaskets, vinyl floor covering and fuse insulation. Friable asbestos, when dry, can be crumbled, pulverised, or reduced to a powder by hand pressure, posing significant health risks if not managed correctly.
Class B License
Permits the removal of non-friable asbestos. Non-friable asbestos is commonly found in corrugated cement sheet roofs, cement sheet eaves, walls, pipes and vinyl floor tiles. Non-friable asbestos still requires careful handling to prevent exposure.
When selecting an asbestos removal company, verifying their credentials and license types is essential to ensure they are qualified for the specific removal project. At Piccolo Amianto, we meet and exceed industry standards, incorporating air monitoring and providing all necessary certifications, including NATA-accredited analysis and reporting, to ensure that every asbestos removal project is conducted safely and efficiently. Our comprehensive approach, from initial assessment to final clearance, guarantees that the job is done right the first time, protecting the health of all involved and minimising future risks.
