Asbestos Removal

Crucial Environmental is licensed to carry out a full range of asbestos services to residential, industrial, schools and commercial properties across the UK from our bases in Sussex and Nottinghamshire.

In October 2023, the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) granted us a full license for work with all asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). This means we’re fully authorised to provide full asbestos removal, decontamination and encapsulation services. 

Working with asbestos is often a process rather than a task – we provide a comprehensive management service throughout the removal and disposal of the material. This starts with initial surveys, testing sampling, before moving through to waste disposal and air quality monitoring to ensure that the property is free from asbestos fibres. Please contact us today for more details.

What is asbestos and where is it found?

You may have heard of asbestos without really understanding what it is or why you need manage it in your property. Asbestos is a naturally occurring material that was widely used in construction for its wide range of useful properties. Unfortunately, it was established that, while the material is useful, it is also highly damaging to human health. Long-term exposure to asbestos can lead to a number of very serious medical conditions including cancers.

It was banned from use entirely in the UK in 1999 – however, buildings built before can contain asbestos. Some common places that asbestos can be found include:

  • Cement
  • Roofing
  • Floor and roof tiles
  • Sprays and coatings such as Artex
  • Cisterns
  • Insulation
  • Guttering

Carrying out work the right way

We recognise that environmental awareness and legislative-consciousness are paramount in the removal and disposal of asbestos. By ensuring strict compliance with current legislation, site personnel and the general public are safeguarded through safe removal techniques with the secure movement and removal of waste.

We take care of all the paper work, from registering the site with the Environment Agency, through to providing consignment notes from the waste disposal, giving you peace of mind that the hazardous waste has been disposed of legally and in the appropriate manner.

There is nothing more important that safety – it is always our top priority. While our team are experts with years of experience, we always take the time to update our knowledge with training and continuous learning.
