Asbestos Disposal in St Helens and the North West
Are you embarking on a demolition or construction project?
Asbestos was a popular building material before it became banned in 1999, so if your home was built before 2000 it’s highly likely that this harmful material will have been used throughout your property.
Asbestos testing will confirm the presence (or absence) of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) and a qualified surveyor will advise whether you need to manage or remove it.
If asbestos removal is necessary, it needs to be disposed of in the most appropriate and responsible manner, which is something we can help with.
To learn more about our licensed asbestos disposal in the North West and beyond, give us a call on 0800 112 5885.
Domestic asbestos disposal St Helens and North West
As a contracting firm based in St Helens town centre, DACT Contractors is often the first port of call for homeowners and landlords in the local area – ranging from Eccleston to Clock Face and Rainhill to Newton-le-Willows.
Although we specialise in asbestos disposal in St Helens, we extend our services to clients throughout the North West, covering all areas in Merseyside, Cheshire, Greater Manchester, Lancashire, and Cumbria.
Fully qualified in asbestos disposal and with access to registered vehicles, our team is also willing to travel further afield – completing jobs all over the UK.
Safe disposal of asbestos
Asbestos is classed as hazardous waste, so it needs to be disposed of properly at a licensed landfill site. The best way to approach asbestos disposal is to employ an experienced firm that not only has the necessary resources and skills to handle such materials safely but also demonstrates professionalism and commitment to compliance and health and safety.
We can’t speak for all asbestos disposal specialists, but here at DACT, we have a fully waste transfer licensed fleet at our disposal – ensuring the safe transportation of asbestos waste to authorised disposal sites.
We ensure our team is equipped with the appropriate PPE for asbestos disposal in St Helens or anywhere else, too – including gloves, a dust mask, and safety goggles.
Asbestos disposal services with DACT
Here at DACT, our asbestos disposal services are perfect for asbestos floor tiles, roof tiles, cement, guttering, and more associated materials.
We use heavy-duty polythene sheets or bags and make sure that any small pieces of asbestos are double-bagged and securely sealed.
We won’t break asbestos down into smaller pieces. This is because, when high volumes of asbestos fibres are breathed in, they can get trapped in the lungs and cause serious health problems, including asbestosis, a disease that makes breathing difficult and causes the heart to enlarge.
As licensed waste carriers, our asbestos disposal team will provide you with a hazardous waste consignment note from the Environment Agency, including details about what’s being removed, the date, address, and all parties involved in the transfer.
