✔ Worker exposure stays under 0.1 fibres per cm³ (averaged over four hours).
✔ The task is short, non-continuous, and involves non-friable materials.
✔ The asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) are in good condition and are not intentionally broken up.
✔ The ACMs are sealed or encapsulated to prevent future damage.

What Asbestos Removal Can We Carry Out?
We are fully trained to safely remove and dispose of certain types of asbestos, including:
✅ Asbestos cement products (e.g. roof sheets) if carefully handled without breaking.
✅ Small areas of textured coatings (e.g. Artex) using dust-reducing methods.
✅ Loosely fixed AIB panels for maintenance access (e.g. under baths, in ceiling voids).
✅ AIB doors with asbestos fireproofing, provided the removal is low-risk and controlled.
Please Note: we are not trained for the following high-risk asbestos removal tasks:
❌ Sprayed coatings (limpet asbestos).
❌ Pipe lagging or loose-fill insulation.
❌ Significant asbestos dust/fine debris cleanup.
❌ Asbestos millboard removal.
❌ Large-scale AIB removal.
For high-risk asbestos work, you will need to contact a licensed asbestos contractor.
Can I Remove Asbestos Myself?
No, DIY asbestos removal is not advised because inhaling asbestos fibres can cause severe health issues, including asbestosis and mesothelioma. To ensure safe and legal disposal, always rely on a professional asbestos removal company like Yes Waste.
Do I Need An Asbestos Survey Before Removal?
Before any asbestos removal work begins, contractors should provide a Risk Assessment & Method Statement (RAMS).
If you suspect asbestos but are unsure, an asbestos survey can confirm its presence. However, for known asbestos materials—such as cement roofing or AIB panels—a survey may not always be necessary before removal.
How Much Will Asbestos Removal Cost?
The price for asbestos removal varies based on the type, quantity, and condition of the material. Smaller projects, such as removing asbestos from a garage roof cost less than large-scale asbestos disposal. We provide tailored quotes based on the specifics of the project, so contact us for a free, no-obligation estimate.
How Long Does Asbestos Removal Take?
What Happens To Asbestos After Removal?
Asbestos is carefully packaged, taken away, and disposed of at a licensed hazardous waste facility. We issue Waste Transfer Notes for domestic projects, and a Hazardous Waste Consignment Note for commercial jobs. You can be confident that your materials will be disposed of legally and ethically.
What Is The Difference Between Licensed and Non-Licensed Asbestos?
Asbestos removal is divided into two main categories:
Licensed Asbestos Removal: This is for high-risk projects where the asbestos material poses a significant danger. Such tasks require specialist contractors with the appropriate certifications to ensure safe handling and removal.
Non-Licensed Asbestos Removal: This applies to lower-risk jobs where exposure to asbestos fibres is controlled and minimal, typically not requiring the use of certified specialist contractors.
