A Safe, Step-by-Step Approach

  • Containment & Preparation

    We seal off the affected area using industry-grade barriers and negative pressure systems to ensure no fibres escape during removal.

  • Safe Removal & Disposal

    Our licensed operatives use approved techniques and equipment to safely remove and double-bag asbestos waste for transport.

  • Decontamination & Clearance

    After removal, our team decontaminates the site and arranges for an independent analyst to conduct air testing before reoccupation.

  • Documentation & Compliance

    Clients receive full documentation, including waste transfer notes, certificates of reoccupation, and health and safety records.

Case Studies

Our Recent Asbestos Services Case Study

This case study showcases a recent commercial asbestos removal project delivered by AEL Environmental Specialists. The work involved creating a fully sealed containment zone inside a large industrial building where damaged asbestos materials were identified across structural columns and internal wall sections. Our team installed controlled enclosures, negative pressure units, and strict air management measures to ensure safe removal while allowing surrounding areas of the site to operate without disruption.

Project details

Challenge

The industrial site contained damaged asbestos materials within an occupied building that required partial closure. Sections of the structure were deteriorated, increasing the risk of airborne fibre release. Large open spaces, exposed steel columns, and high ceilings made containment more challenging. The client needed the work completed safely while maintaining as much operational continuity as possible.

Solution

Our team built a full internal enclosure system using timber framing and heavy grade polythene sheeting to isolate the affected zones. Negative pressure units and HEPA filtration systems were installed to maintain safe air control throughout the project. Licensed operatives removed all asbestos containing materials under strict conditions, and waste was securely bagged and transported to an approved disposal facility. The site was handed back clean and ready for further refurbishment works.

Common Questions About Asbestos Removal

Here are some of the most frequently asked questions about asbestos removal and how our team ensures complete safety and compliance throughout the process.

We provide wide range of services in Commercial and Domestic properties throughout Northern Ireland and Commercial properties only to Southern Ireland.

Asbestos is a group of naturally occurring minerals that were used in various building materials for their strength and fire-resistant properties. When asbestos-containing materials deteriorate or are disturbed, tiny asbestos fibres can become airborne. Inhaling these fibres can lead to serious health issues, including lung cancer, asbestosis, and mesothelioma.

No, it is not safe to remove asbestos on your own. Asbestos removal is a highly regulated and dangerous process that should only be performed by trained and certified professionals. Attempting to remove asbestos without the proper equipment and training can increase your risk of exposure.

We recommend an asbestos survey carried out by our trained surveyors to confirm the presence and condition of asbestos-containing materials. If your property was built before the 2000s, it’s possible that asbestos-containing materials were used.

If asbestos-containing materials are discovered, it’s important not to disturb them. Contact a licensed asbestos removal contractor immediately. They will assess the situation, recommend a removal or encapsulation strategy, and carry out the necessary work to eliminate the risk.

The cost of asbestos removal varies depending on factors like the extent of contamination, the type of materials involved, and the complexity of the removal process. It’s an investment in your health and safety, and it’s essential not to cut corners to save costs when it comes to asbestos removal.
