AIB Solutions has successfully completed Phase 1 of a fire-damaged roof removal project on Pyenest Street in Shelton, Stoke-on-Trent.

The works involved the safe removal and disposal of a severely fire-damaged roof structure, along with associated contaminated debris. Due to the nature of fire damage and the building’s location within a densely populated residential area, the project required strict safety controls, structured sequencing, and fully compliant waste handling.

If you are looking for professional asbestos removal in Stoke-on-Trent, our specialist team delivers safe, compliant and fully documented services across Staffordshire and the Midlands.

Understanding the Risks of Fire-Damaged Buildings

Fire-damaged properties present a unique set of hazards. Structural integrity is often compromised, materials may be weakened or unstable, and debris can contain contaminants.

Key risks include:

  • Structurally unstable roofing systems
  • Loose and partially collapsed materials
  • Smoke and fire-contaminated debris
  • Potential presence of hazardous materials such as asbestos

In older buildings across Stoke-on-Trent, roofing systems may contain asbestos-containing materials. Where there is any suspicion, we follow the same strict procedures used within our Asbestos Testing Services and comprehensive Asbestos Surveys before any intrusive removal works begin.

This ensures compliance with UK legislation and protects both operatives and the public.

Project Location: Shelton, Stoke-on-Trent

The Pyenest Street site is located in Shelton, a densely populated area of Stoke-on-Trent. Working in such environments requires careful planning to protect neighbouring properties, pedestrians and surrounding infrastructure.

Our methodology aligns with the standards we apply across our wider Construction Asbestos Services, particularly on projects involving refurbishment, demolition preparation and structural strip-out.

Phase 1 Scope of Works

Phase 1 focused on stabilising and making the building safe through controlled roof removal.

The works included:

  • Full site assessment and RAMS preparation
  • Structured dismantling of the fire-damaged roof
  • Safe handling of unstable materials
  • Segregation of debris into appropriate waste streams
  • Fully compliant transportation and disposal

Where fire damage raises the possibility of asbestos-containing materials, works are escalated under the same procedures followed within our Licensed Asbestos Removal for Roofing & Renovation Contractors service. This ensures full legal compliance and professional risk management throughout.

Safe Waste Handling and Compliance

Fire-damaged materials require careful handling, particularly in older commercial or industrial buildings.

All materials from the Pyenest Street site were removed in accordance with UK environmental legislation. Waste transfer documentation was issued to ensure traceability and compliance.

This reflects the same high standards followed across our core Asbestos Removal Services throughout Stoke-on-Trent and the wider Midlands region. For property owners unsure whether materials may contain asbestos, we always recommend arranging professional asbestos testing prior to structural strip-out.

Minimising Disruption in Residential Areas

Shelton’s dense residential layout meant disruption control was essential.

We implemented:

  • Secure working perimeters
  • Controlled dismantling sequences
  • Dust management procedures
  • Efficient completion timelines

This careful management approach is consistent with our regional projects, including Asbestos Removal in Nottingham and Derby.
