Asbestos removal in Birkerød

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

In Birkerød asbestos is typically found in the residential areas of Bistrup and Kajerød, where the fibre-cement roof on the house, garage or carport may be the original, and in ceilings and floors in the older houses around Hovedgaden.

Asbestos in Birkerød homes

Bistrup to the south and Kajerød to the west have grown together with the old town around Hovedgaden and the church. If your villa, garage or carport has a roof of corrugated sheets or fibre-cement slates from before 1990, it may be an asbestos roof. Inside the villas it is often ceiling boards in ceilings and walls and tile adhesive and floors in the bathroom, and the older houses can have pipe insulation around the heating pipes in the basement.

Fibre-cement sheets containing asbestos were produced 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 but occurs until around 1980. If your villa still has its original roof or floors, only an asbestos sample shows whether they contain asbestos. Have them tested before you renovate.

Businesses in Birkerød

The business areas in the south-west and along Birkerød Kongevej hold offices, light production and workshops, many of them built from the 1970s onwards. In buildings from before 1990 there can be fibre-cement roofs and asbestos-containing ceiling boards. We take 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 Birkerød?

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 Birkerød

Can I remove asbestos myself in Birkerød?

As a rule, no. Since 1 January 2025, taking down asbestos-containing material has required authorisation, in Birkerød 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.

Do you cover all of Birkerød?

Yes. We work around Hovedgaden and Birkerød Kirke, in Bistrup and Kajerød and out to Svaneparken. We also cover the rest of Rudersdal Municipality, including Holte, Nærum and Vedbæk.
