Authorised asbestos removal in Gentofte

Authorised asbestos removal in Gentofte: roofs, ceilings, tile adhesive and pipe insulation in Hellerup, Charlottenlund, Ordrup and Dyssegård. Fixed written quote.

We carry out authorised asbestos removal across all of Gentofte Municipality – in Hellerup, Charlottenlund, Ordrup, Vangede, Dyssegård, Jægersborg, Klampenborg and Skovshoved. 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 Gentofte

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 around old heating pipes. Along the shopping streets it is often pipe insulation in basements and ceiling boards in stairwells; in the homes bathroom floors and suspended ceilings. If you are unsure whether a material contains asbestos, we have it tested before anyone starts touching it.

Asbestos in the houses of Gentofte

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. That also affects homes in Gentofte that got a new bathroom, new floors or a new roof in the 1960s, 70s and 80s. The year of construction is a hint, not an answer: only an asbestos test shows whether the material contains asbestos.

Businesses in Gentofte

Shops and clinics on the ground floors along Strandvejen, Jægersborg Allé, Ordrupvej and Gentoftegade get business jobs planned zone by zone so the rest of the premises can stay in use meanwhile, and the documentation goes with the waste notification to the municipality.

What does asbestos removal cost in Gentofte?

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.

How an asbestos removal runs. From site visit and sample to documented disposal.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. Removal and packing

    Asbestos-containing materials are taken down without breaking or grinding, packed in approved packaging and labelled.

  5. 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 Gentofte

Write to us if your question isn't answered here.

Can I remove asbestos myself in Gentofte?

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 Gentofte 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, and a job may not be split into small pieces to get around the rule.

What does asbestos removal cost in Gentofte?

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; a large roof with many penetrations and dormers takes longer than a single garage roof. 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.
