Asbestos removal in Varde

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

In Varde, asbestos is typically found in the detached houses from the 1960s onwards, in the large areas north of the centre and in Sønder Varde south of the river. In the old houses in the centre it can turn up during renovation.

Asbestos in Varde homes

The houses in the old centre between Nørrevold and Østervold were mostly built after the fire of 1821, with red walls and red tiled roofs. The rest of the town is much younger: the 1963 municipal plan laid out new residential areas, especially north-west of the town, and today there are large detached-house areas and social housing blocks north of the centre. South of the river, Sønder Varde, divided by Søndergade, is a detached-house area roughly as large as the town north of it. If your house, garage or outbuilding has a roof of corrugated sheets or fibre-cement slates from before 1990, it may be an asbestos roof. In the old houses in the centre it is what was added later: ceilings and walls, tile adhesive and floors and pipe insulation.

Fibre-cement sheets containing asbestos were produced until 1988 and laid until around 1990, tile adhesive and floor glue could contain asbestos until around 1980, and asbestos pipe insulation is mostly from before 1972, in a few cases until around 1980. Only an asbestos sample settles whether asbestos is present, so have the material tested before anyone touches it.

Businesses in Varde

Varde has business areas both in the northern part of town and at the southern edge of Sønder Varde. Halls, workshops and warehouses from before 1990 can have fibre-cement roofs and asbestos-containing ceiling boards. We take commercial jobs zone by zone so operations can continue, and you get the documentation for the municipality’s waste notification.

What does asbestos removal cost in Varde?

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 Varde

Can the detached houses in Sønder Varde contain asbestos?

Yes, if they were built or renovated before 1990. If you are renovating, the fibre-cement roof, the bathroom tile adhesive and the ceiling boards are the obvious places to have tested first. Only an asbestos sample shows whether there is asbestos in your house.

Do you cover all of Varde?

Yes. We work across the whole town, from the old centre north of the river and the areas by Nordre Boulevard to Sønder Varde and the business areas. We also cover the rest of Varde Municipality, including Ølgod, Oksbøl, Tistrup and Outrup.
