Asbestos Floor Tile Removal in Ashby-De-La-Zouch, Leicestershire

A common mistake people make is thinking that once the tiles are up, the danger is gone. Often, the tiles were stuck down with a thick, black tar-like substance known as bitumen adhesive or mastic. This glue almost always contains asbestos. If you find yourself looking at a black-stained concrete floor after pulling up old flooring, do not attempt to sand, scrape, or grind it. This is where the highest risk of fibre release occurs. We specialise in the safe removal of both the vinyl asbestos tiles and the underlying bitumen adhesive. We use controlled methods to strip the floor back safely, leaving you with a surface that is clean and ready for your new laminate, carpet, or tiling without any lingering concerns.

When we come to your property in Ashby or the surrounding Leicestershire villages, we don't just 'rip things up'. We follow a meticulous process aligned with strict HSE guidelines for handling asbestos-containing materials. This involves using specialist dust suppression techniques—essentially wetting the materials down with specific solutions to keep fibres trapped. Our team wears full PPE and RPE (Respiratory Protective Equipment) and uses HEPA-filtered vacuums to ensure the air remains clean. We take the time to double-bag and seal all waste before it even leaves the room. It is a thorough, careful approach designed to protect your family and your home from any contamination.
