Many properties built or refurbished before the year 2000 might have vinyl or thermoplastic floor tiles containing asbestos. These were popular because they were durable and affordable. While asbestos floor tiles are generally low risk when undisturbed and in good condition, they become dangerous if they crack, break, are sanded, or removed incorrectly. This can release microscopic asbestos fibres into the air, which can cause severe lung diseases years later. If you're planning renovations, a new flooring installation, or just worried about existing tiles, it's vital to have them professionally assessed and removed safely.

When you choose Southern Asbestos for your floor tile removal, you're opting for a thorough, safety-first approach. Our trained and experienced team follow strict HSE guidelines every step of the way. First, we'll carefully assess the area and, if needed, take samples for laboratory testing to confirm the presence of asbestos. Once confirmed, we'll prepare the work zone with full containment measures to prevent any fibre spread. Then, using specialist equipment and techniques, we carefully remove the asbestos floor tiles and their associated adhesives. We ensure the area is meticulously cleaned before packing all waste securely for legal disposal. Our goal is to leave your property clean, safe, and ready for its new flooring.
