Non-licensed asbestos removal refers to the safe handling and disposal of lower-risk asbestos-containing materials. While less friable (meaning fibres are not as easily released when disturbed) than 'licensed' asbestos, these materials still pose a risk if not managed correctly. For homeowners in Long Sutton, typical non-licensed ACMs we encounter include:

• Asbestos Cement Sheets: Often found on garage roofs, sheds, downpipes, and soffits. These rigid materials are common in properties built before the year 2000.
• Textured Coatings (Artex): Many older decorative ceiling and wall coatings contain asbestos, requiring careful removal.
• Asbestos Floor Tiles: Vinyl or thermoplastic floor tiles and the bitumen adhesive used to fix them can contain asbestos.
• Certain Gaskets and Boards: Some less friable insulation boards or gaskets may also fall under the non-licensed category.

Even though these materials are considered lower risk, DIY removal is strongly discouraged. Disturbing them without proper equipment and containment can release microscopic asbestos fibres into the air, posing a serious health hazard to you and your family. Our professional service for Long Sutton ensures these risks are entirely mitigated.
