Asbestos removal in Lystrup

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

In the detached houses of Hovmarken and Indelukket it is typically the fibre-cement roof, tile adhesive or floors from the building year that need checking. On Bygaden by the old station and on Elsted Byvej it is the alterations the older houses have had.

Asbestos in Lystrup homes

Most of Lystrup was built in the suburban growth from the 1960s onwards, with detached houses on the slope down towards the Egå valley. If your house, carport or shed has a roof of corrugated sheets or fibre-cement slates from before 1990, it may be an asbestos roof. If the kitchen or bathroom in a 1970s house is being replaced, have the tile adhesive and floors and the boards in ceilings and walls checked first. Along Bygaden and the old village street Elsted Byvej the houses are older, but they may have had a new roof, new floors or new pipe insulation in the decades when asbestos was in use.

Fibre-cement sheets containing asbestos were made until 1988 and laid until around 1990. Tile adhesive and floor glue could contain asbestos until around 1980, and asbestos pipe insulation is most common before the main ban in 1972, occasionally later. Only an asbestos sample shows whether asbestos is present, so have the material tested before the tradespeople start.

Businesses in Lystrup

Lystrup has a sizeable business area with production, warehousing and retail. Halls and warehouses from before 1990 can have fibre-cement roofs and asbestos-containing ceiling boards. On commercial jobs we take one zone at a time so the rest of the building can be used in the meantime, and you get the documentation for the municipality’s waste notification.

What does asbestos removal cost in Lystrup?

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 Lystrup

Why are so many houses in Lystrup from the 1960s and 70s?

Lystrup grew rapidly from the 1960s, when many people moved from Aarhus' working-class districts out to the suburbs. In Elsted parish, which then included Lystrup, the population rose from 696 in 1955 to 6,653 in 1980. Those are exactly the years when fibre-cement sheets, tile adhesive and floor glue could contain asbestos, so have the materials tested before you tear anything out.
