We scored ZERO. 🎯
In South Africa you can’t legally remove an asbestos roof without an Approved Inspection Authority (AIA) watching every step. Under the Asbestos Abatement Regulations, 2020 (Reg 16), the AIA puts air samplers on site while we work to measure exactly what goes into the air.
Our latest report came back: no asbestos fibres detected ✅ That’s below the < 0,01 f/ml clearance indicator in Reg 22.
That’s what “uncompromising safety” looks like. If your contractor can’t show you an AIA report, ask why.

I hate having to tell a family they’ve accidentally exposed themselves to asbestos fibres.
If you’re planning a home renovation or DIY project, stop and test BEFORE you tear down.
Asbestos was commonly used in homes built before 2011. You can find it in popcorn ceilings, old vinyl floor tiles, drywall joint compound, siding, and pipe insulation.
When you break, sand, or rip these materials out without proper containment, invisible asbestos fibres enter the air and settle into your home’s air ducts and furniture—putting everyone inside at serious risk.
A quick professional test before you start could save your family’s health (and save you thousands in remediation and decontamination costs later).

Is your ceiling hiding asbestos? 🔍

Many South African homes, schools and offices built before 2008 still have asbestos cement ceiling boards. They often look just like ordinary painted board.

Left alone and in good condition, they’re usually low risk. The danger starts when they’re drilled, cut, sanded or broken, or when water damage makes them sag and crumble. That releases tiny fibres you can’t see, and breathing them in is linked to asbestosis, lung cancer and mesothelioma. Symptoms can take decades to appear.

⚠️ Don’t drill. Don’t cut. Get it tested.
Only lab analysis can confirm asbestos, and removal must be done by a registered asbestos contractor.

That old window putty could be hiding asbestos ⚠️

Many steel-frame windows from the mid-1900s were sealed with glazing putty that had asbestos mixed in. Back then the fibres made the putty stronger and more durable, and helped it stand up to heat and weather.

Decades later, that putty dries out, cracks and crumbles. Scraping, sanding or chipping it during a renovation releases invisible fibres into the air. Breathing them in is linked to asbestosis, lung cancer and mesothelioma, and the disease can take 20–40+ years to show up.

🚫 Don’t scrape it. Don’t sand it.
✅ Get it tested first.

Of course we do a happy dance every time someone tells us, “I didn’t know that was asbestos,” or “I learned so much about asbestos from watching your videos!”

At Burgi Construction, our goal is to safely identify asbestos and keep everyone educated about exposure; helping to prevent future lung diseases and all those the terrible health risks associated with asbestos exposure. Every awareness moment is a life protected.

Could your toilet actually contain asbestos? 🚽⚠️

While glazed ceramic toilet bowls are completely safe, older cisterns; especially black composite/Bakelite models or grey asbestos-cement tanks fitted before 1990 ~ might contain asbestos.

Quick Guide to Checking Your Toilet:
Safe: Shiny glazed ceramic, light modern plastic, or toilets installed after the 2008 South African ban.

Potential Risk: Dull, heavy black composite cisterns or rough, grey off-white cement cisterns with crumbly edges.

Safety Rule: Never break, drill, or sand a suspect cistern. If it is intact, leave it alone, and always test before you renovate!
