Authorised asbestos removal in Frederikshavn

We carry out authorised asbestos removal across all of Frederikshavn – from the older streets around Danmarksgade and Havnepladsen to the areas out towards Bangsbo and Flade Bakker, and in Strandby, Elling and Jerup. Homeowners and businesses get 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 Frederikshavn

Asbestos and fibre-cement roofs are the most common job in Frederikshavn: corrugated sheets on detached houses and outbuildings that have to come down before a new roof. 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. If you are unsure whether a material contains asbestos, we have it tested before anyone starts touching it.

Asbestos in the houses of Frederikshavn

Houses built 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. A house from the 1960s, 70s or 80s can still have its original fibre-cement roof. The year of construction is a hint, not an answer: only an asbestos test shows whether the material contains asbestos.

Businesses in Frederikshavn

Frederikshavn’s business life sits at the harbour: the shipyard, engine production, ship recycling, the naval base and the ferry terminal, with workshops and warehouses around them. In buildings from before 1990, fibre-cement roofs and asbestos-containing ceiling boards are still common. Business jobs are planned zone by zone so operations can continue, and the documentation goes with your waste notification to the municipality.
