Short answer

EnviroForce provides NATA accredited meth testing in Adelaide. A technician takes NIOSH 9111 wipe samples from your property, a NATA accredited laboratory analyses them, and your report compares results with the national residential guideline of 0.5 µg/100 cm². South Australia has no law requiring meth testing, so testing is how owners, agents and buyers protect themselves.

South Australia rules to know

South Australia has no law requiring meth testing before a sale or lease. Landlords must still provide premises that are reasonably clean and fit to live in, and agents must not mislead buyers or tenants about a property.

In practice, SA property managers and buyers rely on the national 0.5 µg/100 cm² investigation level and NIOSH 9111 sampling to decide whether a property needs further assessment or remediation.

Why should you arrange a meth test for your property in Adelaide?

Meth pollution in Adelaide housing is a real issue. Most people believe that meth contamination occurs only in homes where it has been produced or cooked. However, contamination can also occur in homes where the substance has been used extensively. Using two methods, EnviroForce will provide you with an efficient meth testing service. The first is a separate wipe sampling, which involves collecting one sample per wipe to distinguish the exact location of the meth residue in the house.

This technique tells you whether there is meth contamination in the area being tested. The second technique is composite wipe sampling, which involves collecting four samples per wipe. A competent laboratory meth test report will be prepared and delivered with specific details on the existence of meth and the levels of contamination detected.

Do I have to disclose meth contamination in South Australia?

Which parts of Adelaide do you cover?

All of Adelaide and surrounding areas, including North Adelaide, Prospect, Salisbury, Elizabeth, Munno Para, Modbury. Regional properties are covered too, with travel charged beyond 50 km.

What level of meth residue is considered unsafe in a house in Australia?

Australia uses a health investigation level of 0.5 µg/100 cm² for residential surfaces, set by the Australian Clandestine Drug Laboratory Remediation Guidelines (2011). A result above that level means the property should have a detailed assessment and, usually, professional remediation before people live in it. Some commercial settings have a higher investigation level. See our guide to safe meth levels.

Can I test my house for meth myself?

Yes, as a first screen. A DIY kit such as our single house kit gives an indication in minutes. It cannot give you a number, is not NATA accredited and will not satisfy an insurer, tribunal or buyer. If a kit shows a positive, or the stakes are high, book professional sampling. Compare the two.

How long do meth test results take?

A site visit for a typical house takes one to two hours. Samples then go to a NATA accredited laboratory under chain of custody, and turnaround depends on the laboratory and the type of assessment. We confirm the expected turnaround when you book, and urgent jobs can be prioritised.

Do you clean or remediate meth-contaminated properties?

No. We only sample and test, which keeps our results independent. If remediation is needed, your report gives the remediator a clear map of what to treat, and we can carry out validation testing afterwards to confirm the property is below the guideline.
