About Sam Robertson
Jim’s Hazmat was born out of customer demand. With Jim’s Building Inspections regularly testing homes for asbestos, clients wanted a trusted Jim’s service to handle the removal as well. Sam helped answer that demand, building a division that now covers everything from asbestos and mould to trauma cleanups, flood mitigation, and hoarder house restorations.
Today, Jim’s Hazmat has around 30 franchisees, with strong growth led by success stories like Gary in Brisbane, who scaled his operation into a million-dollar turnover business with multiple staff, and Sean, a former Aldi manager who generated $250,000 in his very first year. These stories prove the earning potential and scalability of the division for anyone willing to put in the work.
Sam’s focus is on support and training. Franchisees are guided through licensing, hands-on induction, and real-world observation days to ensure they are equipped for the field. His philosophy is clear: Hazmat is not just about cleaning, it is about controlling environments and safeguarding people’s health.
With growing awareness of the health risks of asbestos, mould, and meth contamination, and rising demand from insurance companies, property managers, and homeowners, Jim’s Hazmat is poised to become one of the most important divisions in the Jim’s Group.
Sam continues to lead with a vision of expanding the division nationwide, creating opportunities for franchisees to build high-income, scalable businesses while protecting the homes and health of Australians.
