Asbestos Sample Testing
Submitting individual samples to Airsafe for asbestos testing is a great option if you suspect you may have materials which contain asbestos, however sampling needs to be done carefully. Our Asbestos Sample Testing page has a step-by-step guide to collecting a sample safely, and explains how we analyse it in our NATA-accredited laboratory.
What asbestos testing costs
At Airsafe, we make it simple: we charge a single flat fee of $110 per asbestos sample tested, including GST. It’s the same price whether you’re having one sample tested or ten, and it covers a full analysis in our NATA accredited laboratory with a written report of the result.
We analyse samples within 24 hours of receiving them. Need an answer the same day? For a small surcharge, we can deliver results within hours. Call us on 1300 888 338 before you send your sample and we’ll arrange it.

“Airsafe were extraordinarily fast and efficient at processing my samples for potential asbestos. The website had clear instructions on collecting and packaging samples, and an easy online process for generating postage labels. I must say that Australia Post helped with a very quick delivery as well. Less than 36 hours from postage at local PO to getting the results in my inbox!”

“Dropped a suspicious sample the other day. Location is convenient and the Airsafe logo can be seen from Botany Road. It is quite straight forward. Buzz the door, leave the sample, pay the fee. The report was received the next day. Happy that the sample turned to be safe.”
