A per-square-metre rate is useful for big, even surfaces like a house roof. It is much less useful for a bathroom, a fence or a shed, where setup and disposal make up a large share of the cost no matter how small the job.

Why small jobs cost more per m²

Every job needs setup, protective gear, wrapping, transport, disposal and clearance. Those costs hardly change between five square metres and fifty. Spread across a small area, they push the effective rate up. That is normal, not a markup.

Disposal adds up

Cement sheet is heavy, and Council charges asbestos as special waste by the tonne. The 2025/26 rate was $583 per tonne (inc GST) with a $38 minimum. Check Council's current Fees and Charges before you go. Our quotes include disposal; some advertised rates do not.

Comparing two quotes fairly

Line the quotes up and check each one covers:

  • The same area and materials
  • Scaffolding or access equipment
  • Wrapping, transport and disposal, with a receipt
  • SafeWork NSW notification where required
  • Clearance after the work
  • GST in the total

Sheds and garages

A whole shed or garage, roof and walls, is priced as a job rather than per m², typically $3,000 to $8,000 inc GST. See the roof removal cost guide for roof-only work.

Got more than one asbestos job? Book them together on the same visit and they can share one clearance inspection instead of paying for a separate one each time. That means a fence, shed roof and eaves on the same property add up to a real saving.
