How much does it cost?
The most commonly asked question is how much does it cost for asbestos roof removal? The price varies on a number of different factors which we will now explain. Firstly is the quantity of roof sheets, generally for an average domestic garage which is around 9-12 sheets it would be a flat fee of £500, the larger the area the less it cost per m2 for example a larger agricultural building at 100m2 would be £3,000 but then a large commercial warehouse at 1,000m2 would be £25,000. Another factor that comes into play is access. If the sheets are easily accessible then the labour cost would be less as the job can be completed in a shorter period of time however if they are not and it require us to use a MEWP or Scaffolding of some kind then this would be added on to the cost of the job.
How is it removed?
Asbestos roof removal is generally straightforward. Firstly our operatives are trained to the highest standard having an the necessary Cat B training and an annual medical and yearly face fit testing. They will then put on a paper suit, wellies, gloves and a half face Sundstrom mask for which they are face fit tested. They will then spray the sheets before hand with surfactant which will help reduce any fibre release. Then they cut the screws/bolts carefully with either bolt crops or a reciprocating saw/angle grinder. The sheets are then carefully removed and wrapped in 1000ga polythene or double bagged in 500ga coded asbestos bags. Once the sheets are removed we check for any debris which if found will be vacuumed up using a specialist HVAC. All materials are then disposed of via a licenced waste transfer station with the transfer station us and the client receiving a copy of the hazardous waste consignment note.
