Asbestos Removal, Detection and Management
💬 Family-owned Asbestos Management & Removal Company
For safe and certified Asbestos Removal Wellington wide, the Asbestos Management & Removal Team (AMR TEAM) delivers expert solutions backed by licensed professionals.
Professional Asbestos Removal Wellington Wide
Specialising in both Class A and Class B asbestos removal, the Asbestos Management & Removal Team (AMR TEAM) offers licensed services across Wellington, Lower Hutt, Upper Hutt, Porirua, and the Kapiti Coast. With over a decade of industry experience, they focus on efficient, transparent, and regulation-compliant asbestos services tailored to homes, commercial properties, landlords, and developers.
Class A and Class B Asbestos Removal Services
Unlike general contractors, AMR TEAM holds the qualifications to remove both friable (Class A) and non-friable (Class B) asbestos. Friable asbestos, typically found in older ceilings, flooring, or insulation lagging, can easily release hazardous fibres into the air. In contrast, non-friable asbestos is more stable but may become friable when damaged by fire or renovations.
Because these materials require different removal strategies, their licenced team uses tailored containment systems, HEPA-filtered machinery, and WorkSafe-compliant disposal processes. This ensures safety for both building occupants and neighbouring environments.
Comprehensive Asbestos Testing Services
Before any removal begins, asbestos testing plays a critical role. AMR TEAM performs thorough property inspections to identify suspect materials. Collected samples are analysed by accredited laboratories, allowing them to determine asbestos type and risk level. This crucial step enables their team to deliver a detailed, cost-effective removal plan specific to each site.
Shrink Wrapping for Post-Removal Protection
After removing asbestos, exposed properties—particularly rooftops—are vulnerable to environmental damage. AMR TEAM mitigates this with professional shrink wrapping, which offers a more secure and longer-lasting solution than tarps.
Shrink wrap is tightly sealed over the structure using heat, offering weather resistance and a custom fit around vents and edges. This technique reduces noise, prevents moisture ingress, and keeps the property protected while awaiting repairs or new installations.
Environmental Remediation Services
Asbestos contamination can affect not only building interiors but also surrounding land and water. AMR TEAM provides comprehensive environmental remediation, including:
Site testing to identify hazardous zones.
Removal of asbestos debris and contaminated materials.
Ongoing monitoring to ensure site safety.
Final decontamination to eliminate exposure risks.
Their services are essential after fires, floods, or illegal dumping incidents that disturb asbestos fibres and spread them beyond the original structure.
Contaminated Soil Testing and Removal
AMR TEAM also offers contaminated soil removal, which often follows demolition work or discovery of illegal asbestos dumping. Independent soil testing is performed by authorised assessors to confirm contamination. If asbestos fibres are present, they safely excavate, transport, and dispose of the affected soil, restoring the site with clean fill.
This service helps property owners prevent further spread and ensures legal compliance, especially when preparing land for development or landscaping.

Certified for Safety and Compliance
As a fully licenced asbestos removal provider, AMR TEAM carries the following certifications:
-
Class A and B Asbestos Removal Licences
-
ISO45001:2018 Occupational Health & Safety
-
SiteWise Gold Certification
-
IMPAC Prequal Compliance
Their use of independent WorkSafe-registered assessors for clearance testing ensures full transparency and impartial verification of all work.
Residential and Commercial Expertise
Residential homes across Wellington built before the 1990s often contain asbestos in ceilings, wall linings, roofing, and floor tiles. AMR TEAM works with homeowners to make these properties safe without disrupting the household more than necessary. For landlords and developers, they help maintain legal compliance, minimise project delays, and meet Health and Safety at Work Act obligations.
They also provide services to builders preparing renovation or demolition sites, ensuring the job starts on solid, safe ground.
Real Feedback from Clients
With a reputation built on reliability and clear communication, AMR TEAM has earned trust throughout the Greater Wellington Region. Their clients consistently report:
-
Rapid response times
-
Expert advice that avoids unnecessary removal
-
Clean, sealed work areas
-
Compliance-focused methodology
These endorsements reflect a commitment to professionalism that aligns with both client expectations and legal requirements.
Understanding Shrink Wrap vs Tarping
Temporary weather protection after asbestos removal is crucial. While tarping may seem cost-effective, shrink wrapping offers distinct advantages:
-
Tighter Seal: Conforms to complex roof shapes and prevents water ingress.
-
Increased Durability: Resistant to wind and UV rays.
-
Less Noise: Unlike flapping tarps, shrink wrap stays quiet in wind.
-
Cleaner Aesthetic: Especially important for commercial and multi-dwelling properties.
Clients who choose shrink wrap benefit from a more secure transition between asbestos removal and rebuilding.
Independent Clearance Ensures Objectivity
Once the job is complete, AMR TEAM arranges for independent clearance testing by a licensed WorkSafe assessor. These inspectors are not employed by the company, ensuring objectivity and compliance. A final written certificate confirms that the property is safe to reoccupy or continue with construction.
This impartial validation builds trust and meets insurance, council, and regulatory requirements.
Education and Awareness
In addition to their core services, AMR TEAM educates clients on:
-
Health risks of exposure, including mesothelioma and asbestosis.
-
Legal obligations under the Health and Safety at Work (Asbestos) Regulations.
-
Proper procedures to avoid disturbing asbestos during renovations.
-
When testing is necessary, and how to engage qualified professionals.
By equipping clients with information, they reduce future risks and promote responsible management.
Clear Communication and Transparent Advice
Clients frequently mention the team’s honesty and transparency, even when asbestos removal turns out unnecessary. Their policy is to provide factual advice, not sales pitches. This sets them apart in an industry where misinformation can lead to unnecessary costs.
In cases where asbestos is present but poses no immediate risk, AMR TEAM may recommend encapsulation or monitoring instead of full removal. This measured approach reflects their experience and integrity.
Supporting Builders and Property Developers
Construction professionals benefit from the AMR TEAM’s responsiveness and deep knowledge of asbestos regulations. They assist with:
-
Pre-construction assessments
-
Site safety planning
-
Coordination with other trades
-
Regulatory documentation
Their ability to complete jobs promptly without compromising on safety helps projects stay on schedule and within budget.
Why They Stand Out in Wellington
Their core strengths include:
-
Over 10 years of hands-on experience
-
A tight-knit, family-run team
-
Fully licenced Class A & B removal services
-
In-depth testing and soil remediation
-
A focus on client safety and compliance
-
Shrink wrapping that outperforms tarping
Combined, these qualities make the AMR TEAM one of the most trusted choices for Asbestos Removal Wellington wide.
