Comprehensive Asbestos Services
From initial surveys to final disposal, we handle every aspect of asbestos management in North East properties.
Asbestos Surveys & Inspections
Thorough asbestos surveys to locate and assess asbestos-containing materials. We conduct Management Surveys for occupied buildings and Refurbishment & Demolition (R&D) Surveys for properties undergoing works. Our detailed reports identify materials, assess condition, and provide clear recommendations.
Asbestos Testing & Analysis
Professional sampling and UKAS-accredited laboratory testing of suspected materials. If you're unsure whether insulation, ceiling tiles, or floor materials contain asbestos, our testing service provides definitive answers through certified analysis, giving you clarity on next steps.
Licensed Asbestos Removal
Safe removal of all asbestos-containing materials using approved techniques, sealed enclosures, and negative pressure systems. We handle both licensed (high-risk) and non-licensed (lower-risk) removal works, always following HSE guidelines to prevent fiber release and protect occupants.
Asbestos Disposal Services
Secure collection, transportation, and disposal at licensed facilities. All asbestos waste is double-bagged, sealed, and transported in compliance with environmental regulations. We provide complete waste documentation including consignment notes for your records.
Encapsulation & Management
When immediate removal isn't required, we offer asbestos encapsulation (sealing in place) and ongoing management solutions. This safely contains materials to prevent exposure until full removal can be scheduled, particularly useful for buildings with operational constraints.
Air Monitoring & Clearance
Post-removal air testing to confirm safe reoccupation. We conduct thorough clearance inspections and air monitoring to verify that asbestos fiber levels are safe, providing certification that works have been completed to the required standard.
Asbestos Materials We Handle
Our team is experienced in identifying and safely removing all types of asbestos-containing materials commonly found in North East properties.
Asbestos Cement Sheets
Corrugated and flat sheets commonly used for garage roofs, shed roofs, barn cladding, and external wall panels. These grey cement sheets are weathered and brittle, requiring careful handling during removal.
Asbestos Insulation Board (AIB)
White or grey boards used for fire protection, ceiling tiles, partition walls, and door panels. AIB is a high-risk material requiring licensed removal due to its friable nature and high asbestos content.
Textured Coatings (Artex)
Decorative ceiling and wall coatings applied before 2000 that may contain asbestos. Testing is required before any scraping, sanding, or removal work. We provide safe removal or encapsulation options.
Floor Tiles & Vinyl
Vinyl floor tiles, bitumen adhesives, and thermoplastic tiles containing asbestos. Common in properties built between 1950-1980. We carefully remove tiles and underlying adhesive to prevent fiber release.
Pipe Lagging & Insulation
Thermal insulation around pipes, boilers, and heating systems. Often found in older commercial buildings and industrial sites. This is a licensed material requiring specialist removal techniques.
Soffits, Fascias & Guttering
Asbestos cement soffits, fascia boards, and rainwater goods on older properties. We remove these external building components safely and can arrange replacement with modern materials if required.
Our Proven Process
Every asbestos project follows a structured approach to ensure safety, compliance, and peace of mind for clients in North East and across the UK.
1. Initial Consultation
We start with a call to understand your situation. Whether you've found suspected asbestos or need a survey before renovation, we'll advise on the correct next step—testing, survey, or direct removal—based on your specific circumstances.
2. Survey or Testing
If needed, we conduct an asbestos survey to locate materials throughout the property, or arrange sampling and laboratory testing to confirm whether suspected materials contain asbestos. You'll receive a clear report with findings and recommendations.
3. Risk Assessment & Planning
Before any removal, we complete comprehensive risk assessments and method statements. This includes evaluating the material type, condition, location, and best removal approach. We determine whether work is licensed or non-licensed and plan accordingly.
4. Safe Removal Work
Our certified team executes the removal using approved techniques—sealed enclosures, negative pressure units (for licensed works), PPE, and controlled wetting to suppress fibers. Work areas are isolated to prevent contamination of other areas.
5. Decontamination & Testing
After removal, the work area undergoes thorough decontamination and cleaning. For licensed works, we conduct air monitoring and visual inspections to ensure the area is safe for reoccupation. You receive clearance certification upon successful completion.
6. Disposal & Documentation
All asbestos waste is transported to licensed disposal facilities with full waste consignment notes. You receive complete documentation including waste transfer notes, certificates, and any required notifications—perfect for compliance records and property transactions.
