Authorised asbestos removal in Nivå

We carry out authorised asbestos removal across all of Nivå – from the houses around Nivå Station and Nivaagaards Malerisamling, through Niverød, to Nivå Havn and the beach park. 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 Nivå

Asbestos and fibre-cement roofs are the most common job in Nivå: corrugated sheets on detached 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 detached houses often ceiling boards and bathroom floors. If you are unsure, we have the material tested before anyone touches it.

Asbestos in the houses of Nivå

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. Nivå grew together with Niverød in the 1970s, while asbestos roof sheets were still being laid, so if your house from that time still has its original roof, you should have it examined before you renovate. The year of construction is a hint, not an answer: only an asbestos test shows whether the material contains asbestos.
