Not all asbestos removal is the same. 'Licensed asbestos removal' refers to the specialised process required for high-risk, friable materials that can easily release dangerous fibres when disturbed. These include materials like asbestos insulation board (AIB), pipe lagging, spray coatings, and loose-fill asbestos. Due to the significant health risks, only contractors holding a licence from the Health & Safety Executive (HSE) can undertake this work. Asbestos In Homes is fully equipped and qualified to handle these critical projects in Kimberley, adhering strictly to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012) for your absolute peace of mind.

The safe removal of licensed asbestos requires meticulous planning and execution. Our process for properties in Kimberley follows strict HSE guidelines to minimise risk and ensure complete safety:

1. Initial Assessment Risk Evaluation: We begin with a thorough site visit, often preceded by an asbestos survey, to accurately identify the asbestos-containing material, assess its condition, and plan the removal strategy.
2. Notification Regulatory Compliance: For licensed work, we notify the HSE 14 days prior to commencing, as legally required. All necessary permits and risk assessments are completed.
3. Controlled Containment: A fully sealed and segregated enclosure (containment) is built around the work area, often under negative pressure, to prevent the escape of asbestos fibres.
4. Safe Asbestos Removal: Our trained operatives, equipped with specialist respiratory protective equipment (RPE) and personal protective equipment (PPE), carefully remove the ACMs using approved techniques.
5. Air Monitoring Clearance Testing: During and after removal, independent UKAS-accredited analysts conduct air testing to confirm the area is free from airborne asbestos fibres. A four-stage clearance test is mandatory for reoccupation.
6. Hazardous Waste Disposal: All asbestos waste is double-bagged, sealed, and transported to licensed hazardous waste disposal sites, providing you with waste consignment notes for legal proof of disposal.
7. Reinstatement Works: We can also arrange for reinstatement services following removal, ensuring your property is restored to its previous condition.
