Asbestos removal in Holstebro

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

In Holstebro, asbestos typically turns up in the fibre-cement roofs of houses, garages and sheds in the suburbs of Hornshøj, Mejdal and Måbjerg, and in the older shop buildings and blocks of flats around the pedestrian streets between Store Torv and Brotorvet.

Asbestos in Holstebro homes

Holstebro grew strongly in the years after the war and spread out into new suburbs such as Hornshøj and Mejdal. If your house, garage or carport out there has a roof of corrugated sheets or fibre-cement slates from before 1990, it may be an asbestos roof, and in the bathroom and utility room there may be asbestos in the tile adhesive and floors. In the older buildings in the town centre around the Storå, it can be in pipe insulation on the heating pipes and in ceilings and walls put up during a later conversion.

Fibre cement containing asbestos was produced until 1988 and laid on roofs until around 1990. Tile adhesive and floor glue could contain asbestos until around 1980, and asbestos insulation on heating pipes was mostly used before 1972 but occurs until around 1980. A house from the 1960s does not necessarily contain asbestos, and an older house may have gained it in a conversion. Only an asbestos sample shows it, so have the material tested before you renovate.

Businesses in Holstebro

Holstebro is a trading town with shops around Nørregade and large stores on the outskirts, and it has significant industry in food, ironware and machinery, wood and furniture, and chemicals. Factory, warehouse and shop buildings from before 1990 can have fibre-cement roofs and asbestos-containing ceiling boards. We split commercial jobs up so operations can continue in the rest of the building, and you get the documentation for the municipality’s waste notification.

What does asbestos removal cost in Holstebro?

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 Holstebro

Can my house in Hornshøj or Mejdal contain asbestos?

It can. Hornshøj and Mejdal grew up as new suburbs in the years after the war, while asbestos was still common in building materials. A house there can have a fibre-cement roof, asbestos tile adhesive or insulation on the heating pipes. Whether it does is settled by an asbestos sample, not the building year.

Do you cover all of Holstebro?

Yes. We work in the town centre by the Storå river, in Hornshøj, Mejdal and Måbjerg, and across the rest of Holstebro Municipality, including Vinderup, Ulfborg, Vemb and Tvis.
