Asbestos removal in Faaborg

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

In Faaborg we find asbestos both in the old houses between Adelgade, Vestergade and Grønnegade, where it came in with later renovations, and in the fibre-cement roofs of houses and holiday homes.

Asbestos in Faaborg homes

In Faaborg-Midtfyn Municipality 30 % of homes were built before 1920 and 17 % in the 1970s. In the old town, asbestos can come from a modernisation: new ceilings and walls, tile adhesive and floors in the kitchen and bathroom, or pipe insulation on heating pipes added later. From 1942 came the cooperative housing on Engvej, and later the residential areas east and west of Assensvej and Odensevej and south of Johan Rantzaus Vej. If your house, your holiday home facing Øhavet or your shed has a roof of corrugated sheets or fibre-cement slates from before 1990, it may be an asbestos roof.

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 is seen until around 1980. Only an asbestos sample shows whether the material contains asbestos, so have it tested before you renovate.

Businesses in Faaborg

Industry is now gathered north of Johan Rantzaus Vej, with maritime firms in the business district on Krogsbjergvej and a shipyard on the harbour, while the centre is shops and tourism. Workshops, warehouses and shops from before 1990 can have fibre-cement roofs and asbestos-containing ceiling boards. We take commercial jobs zone by zone so you can stay open, and you get the documentation for the municipality’s waste notification.

What does asbestos removal cost in Faaborg?

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.

On an ordinary single-storey house we put up the scaffolding at a fixed price.

Do you cover all of Faaborg?

We work in the old town, in the residential areas by Assensvej and Odensevej and south of Johan Rantzaus Vej, in the business district north of the town and in the holiday homes out towards Øhavet.
