💬 Family-owned Asbestos Management & Removal Company

Specialising in Wellington asbestos removal, AMR Team offer expert solutions tailored to both residential and commercial properties across the region.

Trusted asbestos removal specialists serving Wellington with precision

Operating from the heart of Upper Hutt, the AMR Team have built a strong reputation across the greater Wellington region for safe and compliant asbestos removal. As a family-owned business, they combine hands-on expertise with local insight, delivering services that meet the highest regulatory standards. Whether dealing with deteriorating cladding in a heritage property or a large-scale commercial strip-out, they approach every job with meticulous care.

Their licensed technicians understand the risks associated with asbestos-containing materials and implement proven procedures to mitigate them. Working in strict accordance with New Zealand’s Health and Safety at Work (Asbestos) Regulations 2016, they ensure safe practices from initial inspection through to final clearance. The Wellington asbestos removal services they provide cover everything from roof sheeting and soffits to vinyl tiles and textured coatings.

Servicing residential properties with tailored removal strategies

Across Wellington’s suburbs, many homes built before the 1990s contain asbestos in roofing, cladding, fencing, and interior surfaces. The AMR Team are well-versed in identifying and removing these materials without compromising the structure or safety of a property. They start with detailed site assessments, drawing on years of field experience to spot hidden risks.

Once identified, asbestos is isolated, securely removed, and disposed of at licensed facilities. Their team use encapsulation and negative pressure systems where necessary, ensuring contamination doesn’t spread. From character homes in Karori to coastal properties in Eastbourne, their work respects both architectural integrity and environmental health. Throughout the process, they maintain full transparency, keeping homeowners informed and supported.

Safe and scalable solutions for commercial asbestos challenges

When it comes to larger commercial and industrial sites, the AMR Team offer scalable asbestos removal plans tailored to each building’s complexity. Their services extend to warehouses, office blocks, schools, and council buildings across the wider Wellington region. They work closely with property managers, engineers, and contractors to schedule works that minimise disruption and meet compliance deadlines.

These projects often involve removing asbestos from fireproofing materials, ceiling panels, HVAC systems, and boiler insulation. Their ability to manage confined spaces, high-risk materials, and large-scale decontamination sets them apart. From Petone’s commercial hubs to Upper Hutt’s manufacturing facilities, they deliver consistent, high-quality outcomes backed by documented safety protocols.

Detailed asbestos surveys and reporting for regulatory compliance

A critical first step in any asbestos management process is accurate identification. The AMR Team conduct both management and refurbishment/demolition surveys to determine the presence and condition of asbestos. Their surveyors use calibrated equipment and sample analysis through IANZ-accredited laboratories to produce reliable results.

Each survey is followed by a comprehensive report outlining findings, risk levels, and recommendations for removal or containment. These reports assist property owners in complying with the Health and Safety at Work Act and associated regulations. By offering this service throughout the Wellington region, including suburbs like Johnsonville and Lower Hutt, they ensure building owners can act responsibly and legally.

Expert removal of asbestos roofing in Wellington homes

Older corrugated roofing sheets often contain bonded asbestos, posing a risk as they age and degrade. The AMR Team provide removal and replacement services for asbestos roofing throughout Wellington. Their technicians dismantle roofing in sections using methods that prevent fibre release, followed by immediate containment and disposal.

They coordinate with roofing specialists to ensure seamless replacement once the hazard has been removed. Their removal process includes visual inspections, air monitoring where required, and final clearance checks. Whether working on a single-level home in Ngaio or a hillside property in Wadestown, they deliver outcomes that balance safety, efficiency, and longevity.

Asbestos fence and garage removal with minimal site disruption

Many older Wellington properties still feature asbestos-containing fences, sheds, or garages. The AMR Team offer safe dismantling and removal of these structures with minimal impact on the surrounding landscape. Their team deconstructs each component in a controlled manner, ensuring asbestos panels or corrugated sheets are handled intact to prevent fibre release.

They prepare the site beforehand to secure the area and inform neighbours where needed. This transparent and careful approach has made them a trusted choice for residential asbestos removals from Tawa to Wainuiomata. Their detailed planning and thorough clean-up help homeowners safely modernise their properties without exposing occupants to hidden risks.

The AMR Team assist property owners in understanding and meeting their obligations under the Health and Safety at Work (Asbestos) Regulations. They provide management plans, routine inspections, and remediation services as required.

Working in partnership with local councils and developers

Beyond individual properties, the AMR Team collaborate with councils and private developers during large-scale urban projects.

These projects may involve school buildings, parks, or older civic structures due for renovation.

They liaise with planning teams to develop timelines that factor in environmental safeguards and public health. Their professional conduct and transparent documentation are key to maintaining trust in community-focused projects. Active across suburbs such as Kilbirnie, Porirua, and Silverstream, they play a vital role in keeping redevelopment projects both safe and compliant.

Ethical disposal and sustainability practices

Removing asbestos responsibly means ensuring it’s transported and disposed of at authorised New Zealand facilities. The AMR Team adhere strictly to these practices, using licensed carriers and maintaining full documentation from pickup to disposal. They do not shortcut safety or environmental standards for the sake of convenience.

Every disposal is recorded with waste transfer documentation and site logs to meet regulatory expectations. By consistently applying best practices, they contribute to a safer Wellington while minimising environmental impact. Their ethical approach is part of a broader commitment to health, sustainability, and long-term community wellbeing.

Training and upskilling to maintain removal excellence

The asbestos removal industry requires continual upskilling due to changing regulations and emerging best practices. The AMR Team invest in regular training for all team members, ensuring every technician remains certified and competent. They complete ongoing unit standards through approved training organisations and refresh safety protocols regularly.

This commitment translates to consistently high-quality outcomes, regardless of project size or complexity. It also reassures clients that they’re engaging with a team operating at the top of their profession. Their training-first approach supports not only compliance but also worker and client safety across Wellington’s diverse residential and commercial landscape.

Transparent communication from first call to final sign-off

Clients value clear, honest communication—especially when dealing with hazardous materials. The AMR Team prioritise transparency from the moment of enquiry through to project completion. They explain the risks, outline the process, and offer updates at every stage of the job. This approach is particularly valued in areas like Khandallah, Aro Valley, and Upper Hutt, where communities expect accountability and reliability.

Their detailed reporting and documentation give clients peace of mind, whether for personal records, insurance, or regulatory bodies. By fostering open communication, they build long-term trust and encourage responsible asbestos management throughout the Wellington region.
