Asbestos Removal Licensing

At Synergy Roofing, we are committed to providing safe and compliant asbestos removal services for residential, commercial, and industrial properties. Asbestos is a dangerous material that requires specialized handling and disposal. That’s why we strictly adhere to UK regulations and follow best practices when removing asbestos from roofs, lofts, and roofline products.

Our Asbestos Removal License

We are a non-licensed asbestos removal contractor, authorized to remove non-friable (non-crumbling) asbestos materials. This includes materials like:

• Asbestos-cement products (e.g., roofing sheets, soffits, fascias, guttering, and cladding)
• Asbestos-insulated roofing materials
• Asbestos felt roofing
• Some asbestos-insulated pipes and wiring

What Does Non-Licensed Asbestos Removal Mean?

Asbestos removal is classified into two categories: licensed and non-licensed. Non-licensed asbestos removal is for materials that are in good condition and not likely to release dangerous asbestos fibers during removal. These materials include products such as asbestos-cement sheeting, soffits, and fascia boards.

As a non-licensed asbestos removal contractor, we are not authorized to remove "friable" asbestos (i.e., materials that are easily damaged or broken, such as spray-applied asbestos insulation or loose insulation). For such materials, licensed contractors are required. However, we are fully certified to handle non-friable asbestos materials, which we can safely remove and dispose of without disturbing the surrounding environment.

Compliance with Health & Safety Regulations

Even though we are a non-licensed asbestos removal company, we operate under strict adherence to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) guidelines. These guidelines ensure that we safely manage the removal of asbestos while minimizing any risk to human health. We comply with the following standards:

• Asbestos Survey – Before any work begins, an asbestos survey is conducted to identify and assess any asbestos materials in your property.
• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) – Our team wears full PPE to protect against asbestos exposure during the removal process.
• Safe Work Practices – We use wetting methods, proper containment, and air monitoring during removal to ensure that asbestos fibers do not become airborne.
• Legal Disposal – All asbestos materials are disposed of at licensed waste disposal sites to comply with UK laws.

Why It’s Important to Choose a Licensed Contractor

Asbestos removal can be a complex and dangerous job. Choosing a licensed contractor ensures that the work is carried out in line with all legal and safety requirements. While we are not licensed for the removal of all types of asbestos, we are highly experienced and trained in handling and removing non-friable materials. For friable asbestos, we recommend working with a licensed contractor, and we can assist you in finding one if necessary.
