Licensed asbestos materials, such as asbestos insulation board (AIB), pipe lagging, and sprayed coatings, pose the highest risk due to their friable nature. This means they can easily release dangerous asbestos fibres into the air if disturbed, presenting a serious health hazard. For property owners and duty holders in Featherstone, attempting to remove these materials without the correct training, equipment, and licensing is not only extremely dangerous but also illegal.

Our HSE-licensed team is uniquely qualified to handle these high-risk ACMs. We understand the specific dangers and employ rigorous safety protocols to protect everyone involved, including your family, employees, and the wider Featherstone community. Rely on our expertise for responsible and legally compliant asbestos removal, safeguarding health and property value.

When dealing with licensed asbestos in Featherstone, our meticulous, step-by-step process ensures maximum safety and compliance:

• Detailed Asbestos Surveys & Testing: Before any removal begins, we conduct thorough asbestos surveys, like a Refurbishment & Demolition (R&D) survey, to accurately locate and identify all ACMs. Samples are analysed by a UKAS-accredited laboratory.
• Strict Planning & Notification: For all licensed works, we meticulously plan the project, conduct comprehensive risk assessments, develop detailed method statements, and submit all necessary notifications to the HSE.
• Controlled Containment: We establish fully sealed containment areas with negative pressure units to prevent any fibre release beyond the work zone.
• Safe Removal: Our highly trained and HSE-licensed operatives use specialist personal protective equipment (PPE) and respiratory protective equipment (RPE) to safely dismantle and remove the asbestos materials.
• Rigorous Air Monitoring & Clearance: During and after removal, independent UKAS-accredited analysts conduct air monitoring and a four-stage clearance procedure. This crucial step verifies that the area is safe for reoccupation.
• Legal Waste Disposal: All hazardous asbestos waste is carefully double-bagged, sealed, and transported by licensed carriers to authorised disposal sites. You receive waste consignment notes for full traceability.
• Post-Removal Reinstatement: We can also assist with reinstatement works, helping to restore your Featherstone property to its original condition after the asbestos has been safely removed.
