Authorised asbestos removal in Herlev

We carry out authorised asbestos removal across all of Herlev – from the town centre at Herlev Hovedgade and Herlev Ringvej, through Hjortespring in the north, to the business quarter at Marielundvej south of the S-train line. The procedure is the same for homeowners and businesses: an inspection, a fixed written quote and notification to the Working Environment Authority before the work starts.

What we remove in Herlev

Asbestos and fibre-cement roofs on houses, terraced houses, garages and outbuildings are the job we are asked about most often in Herlev. The sheets are taken down whole, packed and driven to an approved receiver.

Indoors we remove asbestos-containing materials in ceilings and walls, tile adhesive and floors and pipe insulation around old heating pipes. If you are unsure whether a material contains asbestos, we have it tested before anyone touches it.

Asbestos in the houses of Herlev

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 contained asbestos until around 1980, and asbestos pipe insulation sat on heating pipes until the ban in 1972. That applies in Herlev as everywhere else. The year of construction is a hint, not an answer: only an asbestos test shows whether the material contains asbestos.

Businesses in Herlev

The business quarter around Marielundvej, Mileparken and Hørkær is being converted from industry to offices, services and housing, which means conversions and demolitions for many years to come. Before an older commercial building is converted or demolished it has to be screened for asbestos, and asbestos-containing materials are removed first. Business jobs are planned zone by zone so operations can continue, and we help with the information for your waste notification to the municipality.
