Asbestos Removal

Asbestos was historically widely used as a construction and building material. Unfortunately, the material's negative consequences were not recognised, and hundreds of individuals had incurable illnesses as a result, which they continue to suffer from to this day. Many structures were built using asbestos as a construction material until 1999. It was used for a variety of purposes, including roofing, insulation, walls, flooring, and guttering, to mention a few.

When the material is in good condition, there is nothing to be concerned about, but when it is damaged or begins to deteriorate, the potential health concerns can be extremely serious. It is a legal obligation for owners and managers of buildings built before 1999 to identify if asbestos is present in the building, they are responsible for and, if it is, to have a plan in place to safely handle it.

Asbestos Removal- How much does it cost?

Due to the fact that each instance is unique, this is a tough issue to answer. The cost will vary based on a variety of criteria such as the kind of asbestos, the quantity, and whether the material is licenced or unlicensed. The following figures are averages and should only be used as a guide. A basic survey generally cost from £150 to £500 but can significantly increase for larger areas. The cost of removal varies greatly based on a variety of factors, including the quantity of materials removed, the intricacy of the job, and the precautions used to prevent fibre release during the removal process. A general estimate for removal is between £50 and £100 per square metre.

What are the Different Types of Asbestos?

There are mainly three different types of Asbestos:

Blue Asbestos (Crocidolite) 

Blue asbestos is very uncommon and is only often applied in high-temperature situations. It is regarded as the most dangerous of all asbestos kinds.

Brown Asbestos (Amosite)

This kind of Asbestos is generally used in insulation, cement sheets and ceiling tiles. 

White Asbestos (Chrysotile)

Used between 1930 to 1999, Chrysotile is the most common found Asbestos and was used mainly in the construction material of buildings. 

How to find out if your building has Asbestos?

To find out if your building contains Asbestos, you can have an Asbestos Survey conducted in your building. There are three main types of Asbestos Surveys:

Management Survey

A management survey is conducted to see if there is asbestos present in a building. It also ensures that nobody will be harmed by any asbestos-containing materials, the ACM are kept in a good condition, and that the asbestos-containing materials are not disturbed. 

Refurbishment and Demolition Surveys

Before any proposed renovation or demolition work, these surveys are conducted. They are more invasive than management surveys, and they are meant to find asbestos in the building that could be disturbed as a product of the proposed work.

Re-Inspection Surveys

Re-inspection or condition surveys are conducted on a regular basis to verify and report on the status of identified asbestos-containing materials within a property. This guarantees that if the materials have degraded and are now posing a larger risk, corrective measures may be done to minimise the situation.

Asbestos removal should only be done by highly trained experts using the proper safety equipment.
