Christchurch has a substantial stock of pre-1990 residential and commercial buildings that contain asbestos-cement materials. The city's rapid post-war growth produced extensive suburban housing in areas like Sydenham, Linwood, New Brighton, Hornby, and Papanui all developed during the peak asbestos-use era when asbestos-cement roofing, fibro-cement weatherboards, and AC flat sheets were standard construction materials.
The 2010 2011 Canterbury earthquake sequence added a unique dimension to Christchurch's asbestos challenge. The widespread demolition and repair programme disturbed asbestos-containing materials in thousands of properties, and the Red Zone demolitions exposed and dispersed asbestos from buildings that had previously contained it. Properties that underwent repair work post-earthquake may have had some asbestos addressed but not necessarily all of it making comprehensive asbestos inspections especially important for Christchurch homeowners and property managers.

The Christchurch earthquakes (2010 2011) are estimated to have disturbed asbestos-containing materials in tens of thousands of properties across the Canterbury region. Some of this asbestos was identified and managed during the rebuild but many properties still contain previously undisturbed asbestos that must be dealt with before any further renovation or demolition work.
