Asbestos removal in Herning

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

In Herning, asbestos typically turns up in the fibre-cement roofs of detached houses in Tjørring, Snejbjerg, Hammerum and Lind, and in the older factory and warehouse halls in the industrial areas that in several places join the suburbs to the town.

Asbestos in Herning homes

Herning grew strongly in the 1950s and 60s, in the decades when asbestos was common in building materials. If your house, garage or carport has a roof of corrugated sheets or fibre-cement slates from before 1990, it may be an asbestos roof. Indoors, asbestos can be found in tile adhesive and floors in bathrooms and utility rooms, in ceilings and walls and in pipe insulation on old heating pipes in the basement.

Asbestos in fibre-cement sheets continued until production stopped in 1988, and the sheets were laid until around 1990. Tile adhesive and floor glue could contain asbestos until around 1980, and asbestos pipe insulation was mostly used before 1972 but can be found until around 1980. The building year is a clue, not an answer: only an asbestos sample shows it, so have the material tested before you renovate.

Businesses in Herning

Herning grew up around the textile industry and later gained iron, metal and furniture industry, and the factories, warehouses and workshops in the industrial areas between the town and its suburbs are of every age. The oldest can have fibre-cement roofs and asbestos-containing ceiling boards. We take commercial jobs section by section so the rest of the building stays in use, and you get the documentation for the municipality’s waste notification.

What does asbestos removal cost in Herning?

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.

Questions about asbestos removal in Herning

Do I have to notify Herning Municipality myself?

Yes, if the job is large enough. Before demolition, renovation or major maintenance over 10 m² or 1 tonne of waste, you as the client must carry out an environmental screening and submit a waste notification to Herning Municipality. We help you with the details. We notify the asbestos work itself to the Danish Working Environment Authority.

Do you also cover the suburbs of Herning?

Yes. We work across all of Herning, including Tjørring, Snejbjerg, Birk, Hammerum, Gjellerup and Lind, and the rest of Herning Municipality, including Sunds, Aulum, Vildbjerg and Kibæk.
