Many older properties in Shirebrook, particularly those built or renovated before the year 2000, may contain asbestos in floor tiles and the bitumen adhesive used to fix them. While undisturbed asbestos tiles pose a relatively low risk, any damage, wear, or attempts at removal can release dangerous asbestos fibres into the air. Inhaling these microscopic fibres can lead to serious lung diseases. This is why professional intervention is crucial. Our specialists are highly trained to identify, contain, and safely remove these materials, adhering strictly to Health & Safety Executive (HSE) guidelines to protect occupants and workers alike. We handle all types of asbestos materials, from non-licensed lower-risk items to higher-risk licensed asbestos.

Our asbestos floor tile removal operation in Shirebrook is meticulous and compliant, designed for maximum safety and efficiency.

1. Initial Assessment: We begin with a thorough inspection of the suspect floor tiles to assess condition and scope. We can also conduct an asbestos survey if required.
2. Professional Testing: Samples are collected safely and sent to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for accurate analysis, confirming the presence of asbestos. This step ensures we know exactly what we are dealing with.
3. Strict Containment: The work area is carefully sealed off to prevent any fibre spread. This might involve critical enclosures and negative pressure units for more extensive or high-risk projects.
4. Safe Removal: Our certified team, equipped with appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and respiratory protective equipment (RPE), meticulously removes the asbestos-containing floor tiles and adhesive.
5. Hazardous Waste Disposal: All asbestos waste is securely bagged, sealed, and transported to licensed disposal facilities, with full documentation (waste consignment notes) provided for complete traceability.
6. Site Cleanse Reinstatement: Following removal, the area undergoes a thorough clean-up, including specialist vacuuming. We can also assist with reinstatement work, leaving your floors ready for new coverings.
