Tumbi Umbi: worth knowing before you renovate

Tumbi Umbi is one of the place names drawn from Aboriginal words, and the 2010 Wyong heritage history gives its meaning as "plenty of water". In the February 2020 flood its water level station peaked at 1.88 m AHD. Council says the 2001 Black Christmas fires destroyed 109 homes, some in the wider Southern Tuggerah Lakes community. With your permission, we'll pass your details to a licensed asbestos removalist.

Fire is one reason asbestos stops being a do-it-yourself job. Council says bonded asbestos damaged by fire, hail or water blasting may become friable, and that only a licensed friable asbestos removal contractor may then deal with it (Central Coast Council). Weather matters too: NSW Health lists it among the things that can damage asbestos and release fibres. If a sheet on your house or shed has cracked, leave it alone, dampen it and lay plastic over it (NSW Health).

Ring us with a short description. Which part of the house or yard is it on? About how many square metres? Is it in one piece, or broken? Most homes here are separate houses (81.0% of occupied dwellings in 2021), so tell us whether it’s on the house itself or a garage, shed or fence. If you know roughly when the house was built or last renovated, mention that too.
