South Edinburgh Asbestos FAQs
How do you handle South Edinburgh's conservation areas?
Many South Edinburgh properties fall within conservation areas where external and sometimes internal alterations are strictly controlled. When managing asbestos in areas like The Grange and parts of Morningside, we coordinate with Edinburgh Council's planning department and heritage officers when necessary. Our approach emphasizes minimally invasive techniques and appropriate reinstatement using period-appropriate materials and methods.
Are Marchmont tenements high risk for asbestos?
Marchmont's distinctive tenement buildings, while constructed before asbestos was widely used, have typically undergone multiple renovations during the 1960s-1980s when asbestos materials were common. We frequently discover asbestos in boiler cupboards, service ducts, textured ceilings, and around pipes. The communal nature of these buildings also presents specific challenges requiring coordination between multiple owners for comprehensive management.
How do you work with South Edinburgh's university properties?
We have specific protocols for educational buildings around Newington and student accommodation in Marchmont. These include scheduling work during vacation periods when possible, coordinating with university estates departments, and implementing phased approaches that minimize disruption to academic activities. We're experienced with the unique requirements of research facilities where maintaining controlled environments is essential.
What are South Edinburgh asbestos removal costs?
Asbestos removal in South Edinburgh typically ranges from £650-£2,600 depending on material type, quantity, and the specific requirements of period properties. While prestigious addresses in Morningside and The Grange may involve additional considerations for preserving architectural features, we provide transparent, detailed quotes that account for these factors while remaining competitive.
