Morecroft Offers Licensed Asbestos Removal Services in Wellington

Morecroft is a New Zealand provider offering licensed asbestos removal and remediation services across the Wellington region and the lower North Island. Their service covers removal, disposal, contaminated soil treatment and professional reporting. The Wellington asbestos removal page, found at https://www.morecroft.co.nz/locations/wellington/asbestos-removal/, outlines the full range of services available to both residential and commercial clients.

Types of Licences and Scope of Work

Morecroft holds both Class A and Class B licenses, which cover different types and amounts of asbestos or asbestos containing materials. Class A authorizes work on friable asbestos in any amount, while Class B applies to non-friable materials. This licensing allows the company to handle small household projects as well as larger industrial or commercial removal. Their scope of work extends to asbestos removal from buildings, safe disposal of materials and soil, and carrying out expert assessments and reports to guide property owners on safe management.

Health, Safety, and Regulatory Compliance

Asbestos is linked to serious health risks such as lung disease and cancer when fibers are inhaled. For that reason, Morecroft places strong emphasis on compliance with WorkSafe New Zealand standards and industry regulations. Their teams work under accredited safety and environmental systems, including ISO 45001 certification, and follow recognised practices for containment and disposal. For many Wellington property owners, particularly those with homes or buildings constructed between the 1950s and 2000s, the likelihood of asbestos is significant. Attempting removal without training increases the risk of releasing fibres, which is why Morecroft stresses the need for professional assessment.

When to Contact Morecroft

Suspected asbestos in roofing, insulation, ceilings, or even in soil is a situation that requires licensed expertise. Morecroft positions itself as a trusted provider in this area, with services tailored to Wellington residents and businesses.
