Most people want to remove this stuff with their own hands (DIY), but it's actually not a good plan, that's a bad idea and it will take a risk. The fibrous substance (the dust of it) will hurt your health in the future, better you get a pro person to help you.

The 7 steps below may help you when you have a plan on asbestos testing Brisbane (or also in other area).
- Asbestos Manual check
- Council information
- Request a quote
- Choosing a contractor
- Management plan
- Wait for the progress
- Result
1. Check Your Home Stuff (Manual by Visual only)
Many people didn't know that their house has contained the dangerous material. The roof is one of the most popular home material that mostly used. If you find an old roof type, then you have to be careful because old roof types usually made from carcinogenic or materials related to it.
After checking a roof, you may also check other home parts such as wall and pipes. These two things also usually come with the dangerous home materials.
Do you know how it looks like in real life?
This Wikipedia link will explain you about what does asbestos looks like
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asbestos
So step one just check your home materials, if you find something like hazardous types, then go to the step #2.
2. The Council
Try to find more info here at the Queensland government site: http://www.deir.qld.gov.au/asbestos/
3. Ask for a Quote
If you have a tight budget, then you can select any contractor that has a low budget on this job. This is important because sometime, the price of sample analysis may different. A quote will also give you more explanation about the testing procedures. Okay, if you find a fit company then go to step #4. If you still confuse about the analysis process and the cost calculating method, please don't shy, just ask more to the pro guys, they will help you, you will also can see which is the pro guys or not by talking with them about this project, got it?
4. Decide Your Contractor
You got the guys to test your home materials from the dangerous substance. Please remember that sometimes people can't find a secret area in your home, so better you help them to find it. Instruct the contractor to the area that you think have an fibrous stuff. Well, it's quite fast and just only can take about a day to investigate your home, but it will be longer defending the size of your building.
5. Request an Asbestos Management Plan
If your contractor finds any fibrous material in your home, and then you're ready to clean it up and get it done, it's important because this stuff can harm your health anytime. The management plan is an important thing because it will make your job easier. I know that AMP will cost you but it's no compromise to your health.
If you want to know more about the management plan dot points, the Australian (Queensland) link below with help you to understand more about the topic. http://www.deir.qld.gov.au/asbestos/law/management-plans.htm
6. Work in Progress
It will take about a day or more defending your home. Remember that when the analysis is on the progress, you should stay away from your home. As same as the step number #4, the testing process will not take a long time and it is good.
7. Wait for The Test Result and You're Ready to The 2 Options
Great, you have done with the sample analysis, the final test result will be in 2 options, whether you have dangerous stuff or not. If the test result is negative then you're so lucky and congratulation for you, BUT...
If the test gives you a positive result, then you have to prepare the removal process.
That's all for the testing procedures, and this is our first step on cleaning asbestos in our home/building.
The 7 steps above are based from my research in the asbestos testing Brisbane area, it may have a different methods with other company procedures, but in general, the 7 steps above is enough, you will also find that this guidance is better and safe for all, because it's not using an illegal procedure.
Conclusion: The Test is Done, What's Next?
Like I said before, the testing is our first step to make your home 100% free from the fibrous stuff, so the most important way to make it happen is via an removal process. I hope this 7 steps of the testing article will help you to understand the testing process, please don't be confuse, all you need to know is just do it with safe and carefully.
