Licensed Asbestos Removal across Lancashire
Weaving sheds, stone terraces, coastal guest houses and farm buildings with cement sheet roofs make Lancashire one of the busiest areas for asbestos surveys and removal.
Licensed work covers the most dangerous asbestos materials. It needs a full enclosure under negative pressure, a decontamination unit, air monitoring and, at the end, a four-stage clearance by an independent analyst. HSE must be notified at least 14 days before work starts.
Guide price: Quoted after survey (HSE requires 14 days' notice).
