Asbestos removal in Viborg

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

In Viborg, asbestos is typically found in fibre-cement roofs, bathrooms and pipes from before 1990 in the districts of Houlkær, Vestervang and Liseborg, and in the old houses around the cathedral in whatever came with renovations.

Asbestos in Viborg homes

Søndersø and Nørresø divide the town, with the cathedral quarter and the pedestrian streets around Sct. Mathias Gade in the middle and the districts of Houlkær, Vestervang and Liseborg further out. 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 older houses in the centre, what matters is when the house was last renovated: a ceiling, bathroom or heating system from before 1990 can contain asbestos in ceilings and walls, in tile adhesive and floors or as 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 mainly from before 1972, in a few cases until around 1980. The year gives you somewhere to start, but only an asbestos sample shows whether asbestos is present. Have the material tested before anyone touches it.

Businesses in Viborg

Viborg has a large public sector, with the head office of Region Midtjylland, Regionshospitalet Viborg and the Western High Court, and a private sector ranging from industry to consultancy. Office, institution and production buildings from before 1990 can have fibre-cement roofs and asbestos-containing ceiling boards. We plan commercial jobs zone by zone so the rest of the building can stay in use, and you get the documentation for the municipality’s waste notification.

What does asbestos removal cost in Viborg?

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 Viborg

Can the old houses around the cathedral contain asbestos?

They can, in what was added later. The houses in Sct. Mogens Gade date from the 1600s and 1700s, long before asbestos was used in building materials. But an old house may have had a new roof, new ceilings or new heating pipes in the decades before 1990. Only an asbestos sample settles whether there is asbestos in your house.

Do you cover all of Viborg?

Yes. We work across the whole town, from the centre and the cathedral to Houlkær, Vestervang and Liseborg, and across the rest of Viborg Municipality.
