Licensed and Non-Licensed Asbestos Removal

Non-Licensed Asbestos Removal Leeds

Some lower-risk asbestos materials, such as certain asbestos cement products, may be suitable for non-licensed removal when carried out by trained and competent asbestos operatives using safe methods.

Notifiable Non-Licensed Work Leeds

Some asbestos works are non-licensed but still notifiable. These require additional controls, records and notification before the work begins.

Licensed Asbestos Removal Leeds

Higher-risk asbestos materials, such as asbestos insulation, pipe lagging and asbestos insulating board in certain conditions, normally require a licensed asbestos removal contractor.

Where licensed removal is required, we can help coordinate the process and arrange independent analytical services such as air monitoring and 4-stage clearance.

Asbestos Removal for Refurbishment and Demolition Projects

Before refurbishment or demolition works begin, asbestos must be identified and managed. Unexpected asbestos discoveries can cause project delays, safety issues and compliance problems.

We support:

• Main contractors

• Demolition contractors

• Soft strip contractors

• Property developers

• Housing associations

• Commercial landlords

• Facilities managers

• Schools and public sector clients

• Industrial site operators

For planned works, we recommend starting with an appropriate asbestos survey in Leeds before arranging removal.

Asbestos Garage Roof Removal Leeds

Asbestos cement garage roofs are common on older domestic and commercial outbuildings. We can assist with asbestos cement sheet identification, safe removal, waste disposal and replacement planning where required.

For pricing guidance, see our Asbestos Removal Cost Guide.

Air Monitoring and 4 Stage Clearance

Where required, we provide independent UKAS accredited air monitoring, reassurance testing, leak testing, clearance testing and 4-stage clearance.

This is particularly important for licensed asbestos removal works or where reassurance is needed before an area is handed back for use.
