Asbestos removal in Albertslund

We remove asbestos roofs, tile adhesive, pipe insulation and ceiling boards across Albertslund, and the waste goes to an approved facility.

Albertslund is a planned town, built mostly in the 1960s and 70s, so asbestos typically turns up in the roofs of the terraced and courtyard houses in Albertslund Syd and in ceilings and floors when homes are rebuilt.

Asbestos in Albertslund homes

The low canal and courtyard houses in Albertslund Syd and the homes around Albertslund Centrum were built together with the schools and institutions, in the years when asbestos-containing materials were still common. If your terraced or courtyard house, garage or shed has a roof of corrugated sheets or fibre-cement slates from before 1990, it may be an asbestos roof. Indoors, asbestos can be found in ceilings and walls, in tile adhesive and floors under the bathroom tiles and in pipe insulation on the heating pipes. In the older houses in Herstedøster and Herstedvester it depends on when the house was last altered.

Fibre-cement sheets containing asbestos were made until 1988 and laid until around 1990, tile adhesive and floor glue could contain asbestos until around 1980, and asbestos pipe insulation is most common before 1972 and occurs until around 1980. Only an asbestos sample shows whether the material contains asbestos, so have it tested before you start.

Businesses in Albertslund

Hersted in the north of the municipality is a 160-hectare business area by Vestskoven, with production, warehouse and logistics buildings along streets such as Naverland and Smedeland, and parts of the area are gradually being turned into homes and offices. Halls and workshops from before 1990 can have fibre-cement roofs and asbestos-containing ceiling boards. We plan commercial jobs zone by zone so operations can continue, and you get the documentation for the municipality’s waste notification.

What does asbestos removal cost in Albertslund?

Removing an asbestos roof costs from DKK 365/m² incl. VAT (DKK 292/m² excl. VAT), depending on roof type and roof area. Notification, protective sheeting, removal and disposal are included, but the new roof is not. Indoor jobs in ceilings, floors and pipe insulation have no fixed per-m² price, because the scope of the job and the containment it needs set the price.

Indicative price – final quote after assessment. All per-m² prices exclude scaffolding, but we can put it up for you.

Besides roof type and roof area, access affects the price: how high the roof is, how close the buildings are, and whether there is room for scaffolding. If you have several buildings on the same plot, we include them in one quote.

How does asbestos removal work?

A worker in a white protective suit points up at the roof of a detached house while the homeowner looks on.
  1. Your details and sampling

    You tell us about the job. If anything is unclear, or you ask us to, we come out and look at it free of charge. If you are unsure about the material, we arrange an asbestos sample and laboratory analysis, so we know what needs removing.

  2. Fixed quote and notification

    You get a written quote with a fixed price and a plan. We notify the Working Environment Authority before we start, and we help with the municipality's waste notification.

  3. Sealing off and securing

    We cordon off the work area and put down protective sheeting around it. For indoor removal we work under negative pressure with an airlock, so asbestos fibres spread as little as possible to the rest of the building.

  4. Removal and packing

    We take the asbestos-containing materials down using methods that keep dust to a minimum, pack them in approved packaging and label them.

  5. Cleaning, clearance and disposal

    We clean the area, and after indoor work we only reopen it once it has passed a clearance check. The waste goes to an approved facility, and you get the documentation.

Questions about asbestos removal in Albertslund

Can I remove asbestos myself in Albertslund?

As a rule, no. Since 1 January 2025, taking down asbestos-containing material has required authorisation, in Albertslund as everywhere else. The exception is brief, small-scale work, such as 4–6 roof sheets around a single roof window. A whole roof or ceiling is not a small job, and you may not split a job up to get around the rule.

What about scaffolding in the terraced housing estates?

For a detached single-storey house the scaffolding has a fixed price, shown in the calculator. In the dense terraced and courtyard house estates space around the houses is often tight, and then you get a separate price for the scaffolding. If we can't judge the access from your details, we come out free of charge to look at it.

Do you cover all of Albertslund?

Yes. We work across the whole municipality: Albertslund Syd, the districts around Albertslund Centrum, the villages of Herstedøster and Herstedvester and the Hersted business area by Vestskoven.
