Asbestos in Loughborough
Loughborough is a Leicestershire engineering and university town, home to the famous bellfoundry, with Victorian terraces, interwar suburbs and large post-war and student housing. Its industrial works, university buildings and mid-century housing used asbestos cement, lagging and AIB, while terraced and interwar homes commonly hold artex and asbestos cement garages.
Whatever you’re dealing with, we make Loughborough properties safe the right way — identified, proven in the lab, and either contained or removed with paperwork that satisfies lenders, buyers and the HSE.

Plan
We produce a plan of work (or notify the HSE for licensed jobs), method statement and risk assessment specific to your site.
Enclose
Work areas are sealed in controlled enclosures under negative pressure so no fibre escapes.

Clear
An independent analyst runs the 4-stage clearance and issues the certificate of reoccupation. Waste leaves on consignment notes.
Asbestos Removal in Loughborough: FAQs
Do student lets in Loughborough need an asbestos register?
Yes — as rented housing, the common parts and managed areas fall under the landlord's duty to manage asbestos, requiring a management survey and register. We provide these for Loughborough's many student and HMO properties.
Do former works around Loughborough contain asbestos?
Often — the town's engineering heritage means industrial buildings frequently retain lagging, sprayed coatings and asbestos cement. Any conversion or demolition requires a refurbishment and demolition survey first.
Do I need a licensed contractor to remove asbestos?
It depends on the material. High-risk items like pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and asbestos insulating board need an HSE-licensed contractor. Lower-risk items such as cement sheets and floor tiles can be removed under non-licensed controls. We are licensed for both and will tell you which applies.
Can I stay in the property during removal?
For small non-licensed jobs, often yes, with the work area sealed off. For licensed removal inside the home we usually recommend vacating the affected zone until the clearance certificate is issued. We plan the safest sequence around you.
