Non-licensed asbestos refers to materials that, when handled, are less likely to release a high concentration of asbestos fibres into the air compared to licensed materials. This category includes a significant portion of asbestos found in older properties throughout Southwell and the East Midlands. Key examples typically encountered by our team include:

• Asbestos cement products: This is frequently found in corrugated garage roofs, sheds, soffits, fascias, rainwater goods, and even some external cladding.
• Textured coatings (Artex): Widely used on ceilings and walls before 2000, Artex often contains white asbestos.
• Vinyl floor tiles and bitumen adhesive: Many older floor coverings and the black adhesive used to fix them down contain asbestos.
• Asbestos cement flues: Found in older heating systems or boiler flues.
  Even though these are ‘non-licensed’, disturbing them without proper training and equipment is highly dangerous. We ensure their safe management and removal, adhering strictly to UK health and safety regulations.

When you choose Asbestos In Homes for non-licensed asbestos removal in Southwell, you benefit from a meticulous and safety-first approach designed around your needs. Our process ensures maximum protection for you, your family, or your employees:

1. Initial Assessment & Testing: If you suspect asbestos, we can perform professional asbestos testing and sampling. A trained surveyor safely collects a sample, which is then analysed by a UKAS-accredited laboratory, giving you a definitive answer.
2. Strategic Planning: Once confirmed, we devise a detailed, site-specific removal plan tailored to your Southwell property, minimising disruption while maximising safety.
3. Safe Removal & Containment: Our highly trained and experienced team, equipped with appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and respiratory protective equipment (RPE), carefully isolates the work area. We then meticulously remove the ACMs using specialist techniques to prevent fibre release.
4. Rigorous Clean-up: Following removal, the area undergoes a thorough clean-up using H-class vacuum cleaners, ensuring no asbestos debris remains.
5. Licensed Waste Disposal: All removed asbestos waste is double-bagged, sealed, and transported by licensed carriers to approved hazardous waste disposal sites, providing you with all necessary consignment notes for your records.
