Authorised asbestos removal in Helsingør

We carry out authorised asbestos removal across all of Helsingør – from the older buildings in the town centre around Stengade, through the detached-house areas by Marienlyst, to Snekkersten and Espergærde. Homeowners and businesses get the same procedure: an inspection, a fixed written quote and notification to the Working Environment Authority before the work starts.

What we remove in Helsingør

Asbestos and fibre-cement roofs are the most common job in Helsingør: corrugated sheets on houses, garages and outbuildings that have to come down before a new roof can go on. The sheets come down whole, are packed and driven 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 older buildings of the town centre often pipe insulation in basements and ceiling boards in stairwells, in the detached houses bathroom floors. If you are unsure, we have the material tested before anyone touches it.

Asbestos in the houses of Helsingør

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. If your home in Helsingør still has its original fibre-cement roof, original floors or old heating pipes, it is worth having them examined before you renovate. The year of construction is a hint, not an answer: only an asbestos test shows whether the material contains asbestos.

Businesses in Helsingør

The shops in the pedestrian streets, the hotels by Marienlyst and the buildings around the harbour are of every age, and the oldest can have fibre-cement roofs and asbestos-containing ceiling boards. Business jobs are planned so operations can continue, and the documentation goes with your waste notification to the municipality.
