Authorised asbestos removal in Dragør
Authorised asbestos removal in Dragør: roofs, ceilings, tile adhesive and pipes from the old town and harbour to Store Magleby. Notified to the authorities.
We carry out authorised asbestos removal across all of Dragør – in the old town and at the harbour, at Sydstranden, Engparken and Krudttårnsvej, and in Store Magleby. Everyone gets the same procedure: an inspection, a fixed written quote and a removal that is notified to the Working Environment Authority before it starts.
What we remove in Dragør
Asbestos and fibre-cement roofs on homes, garages and outbuildings have to come down before a new roof can go on. We take the sheets down whole, pack them and drive them to an approved receiver.
Indoors we remove asbestos-containing materials in ceilings and walls, in tile adhesive and floors and in pipe insulation. In the old houses containment and negative pressure are set up so the rest of the house is spared. If you are unsure whether a material contains asbestos, we have it tested before anyone starts touching it.
Asbestos in the houses of Dragør
Buildings from before 1990 can contain asbestos-containing materials. Asbestos fibre-cement sheets were produced until 1988 and laid until around 1990, tile adhesive and floor glue were mixed with asbestos until around 1980, and asbestos pipe insulation sat on heating pipes until the ban in 1972. Even in the old town, where the houses are far older, many got a new bathroom, new floors or a new heating system while asbestos was still common. The year of construction is a hint, not an answer: only an asbestos test shows whether the material contains asbestos.
Businesses in Dragør
Restaurants at the harbour, shops on Kongevejen and companies in the business area at A.P. Møllers Allé get business jobs planned zone by zone so operations can continue meanwhile, and the documentation goes with the waste notification to the municipality.
What does asbestos removal cost in Dragør?
An asbestos roof costs from DKK 385/m² incl. VAT (DKK 308/m² excl. VAT), depending on roof type and roof area. Notification, enclosure, removal and disposal are included; scaffolding and the new roof are not. Indoor jobs in ceilings, floors and pipe insulation are priced after an inspection, because the extent and the enclosure decide the price.
In Copenhagen and the dense suburbs it is often scaffolding and parking that push the price up, and in apartment blocks and housing associations we work zone by zone so several jobs can go into one quote.
Indicative price – final quote after assessment.

How an asbestos removal runs. From site visit and sample to documented disposal.
-
Site visit and sampling
We look at the job, and if the material is in doubt we take a sample for laboratory analysis. Only then do we know what needs removing.
-
Fixed quote and notification
You get a written quote with a fixed price and a plan. The work is notified to the Working Environment Authority before we start, and we help with the municipality's waste notification.
-
Sealing off and securing
The area is sealed off and secured. For indoor removal we work under negative pressure with an airlock, so asbestos fibres do not spread to the rest of the building.
-
Removal and packing
Asbestos-containing materials are taken down without breaking or grinding, packed in approved packaging and labelled.
-
Cleaning, control and disposal
The area is cleaned, and for indoor work it is only released after a check. The waste goes to an approved facility, and you get the documentation.
Questions about asbestos removal in Dragør
Write to us if your question isn't answered here.
Can I remove asbestos myself in Dragør?
As a rule, no. Since 1 January 2025 the demolition of asbestos-containing material may only be carried out with an authorisation, and that applies in Dragør as everywhere else. The exemption is short, minor work, such as 4–6 roof sheets around a single roof window. A whole roof or a ceiling is never a minor job.
What does asbestos removal cost in Dragør?
An asbestos roof costs from DKK 385/m² incl. VAT (DKK 308/m² excl. VAT), depending on roof type and roof area. The roof's area and type decide most of it; in the narrow lanes of the old town, access for scaffolding and vehicles can affect the price. Indoor jobs in ceilings, floors and pipes are priced after an inspection. You always get a fixed quote in writing. Indicative price – final quote after assessment.
Do you cover all of Dragør?
Yes. We remove asbestos across the whole of Dragør Municipality – the old town and harbour, the neighbourhoods at Sydstranden, Engparken and Krudttårnsvej, and Store Magleby – and across the rest of Amager and the capital area. The procedure is the same everywhere: an inspection, a fixed written quote, notification to the Working Environment Authority and documented disposal.
