Industrial & Commercial Asbestos Removal in Bakewell

We remove licensable asbestos from commercial and industrial properties across Bakewell.

What is licensable asbestos?

Licensable asbestos removal work involves a licensed asbestos removal company like ourselves removing the asbestos containing materials.

This is because the asbestos that needs removing -

• Will provide high exposure to those removing it.
• Is asbestos insulation board or asbestos insulation.
• Involves an asbestos coating.
• Is not short duration work.

The HSE has a page that goes into depth on licensable asbestos removal work.

Industrial properties can have high levels of asbestos present within the building, simply because of their age. Any property that was built or renovated before the year 2000 should be assumed to contain asbestos. This is because using asbestos in the construction sector wasn't fully banned until 1999 in the UK.

If you suspect you have asbestos containing materials in or around your property in Bakewell then get in contact with us now and we can provide a quote for its removal.

Where can I find asbestos in my property?

Asbestos containing materials were used widely for decades across the construction sector due to their excellent heat/fire resistance properties.

Some examples of where we commonly come across asbestos containing materials when carrying out an asbestos survey are -

• Loose fill insulation
• Asbestos insulation board (AIB)
• Sprayed on coating
• Guttering and down pipes
• Chimney flues
• Partition board
• Panels in doors and window frames
• Lagging on boilers and pipes
• Floor and roof tiles

The HSE has a graphic that shows just how widely asbestos can be found in an industrial property.

If you have any questions on what asbestos looks like or where it could be residing in your property then get in contact with us and we can carry out an asbestos survey, before fully removing the asbestos for you.
