Safe Removal of Asbestos Insulating Board Ceiling Panels in Audlem, Cheshire

At AIB Solutions, we’re trusted by homeowners across Staffordshire and Cheshire for safe and fully compliant asbestos removal.
‍
One of our recent projects took us to Audlem, Cheshire, where we were instructed to carry out the removal of asbestos insulating board (AIB) ceiling panels in a property’s garage and utility room. The works were essential to allow the builder to convert the area into additional living space.
‍
This project is a great example of how our Domestic Asbestos Removal & Safe Disposal Services help homeowners to improve and adapt their properties safely, without asbestos risks.

The Challenge: Asbestos in Domestic Properties
‍
Asbestos is often found in:
Garage and utility room ceilings
Insulating board walls and partitions
Cement roofing sheets
Floor tiles and adhesives
Artex-style textured coatings
‍
While stable when left undisturbed, asbestos can pose serious risks if damaged during renovation or conversion works. In this case, the ceiling panels had to be removed before the builder could safely proceed with turning the garage and utility into living accommodation.

Our Process on This Project:

1. Initial Survey & PlanningOur surveyors confirmed the presence of asbestos insulating board in the garage and utility ceiling, then designed a safe removal plan.
2. Enclosure & Safety ControlsWe installed a fully sealed enclosure with air-locks and bag-locks (as pictured), ensuring that no fibres escaped into other areas of the property.
3. Licensed Removal WorksOur trained operatives carefully removed the AIB panels under controlled conditions, using specialist techniques and equipment.
4. Secure Waste DisposalAll asbestos waste was double-bagged, sealed, and taken to a licensed disposal facility in compliance with regulations.
5. Final Inspection & HandoverOnce completed, the area was thoroughly cleaned and independently inspected to confirm it was safe for reoccupation.

Why This Project Was Important:
The removal of asbestos insulating board allowed:
The builder to continue with the conversion works without delay.
The homeowner to gain peace of mind knowing asbestos was removed safely.
The property to be transformed into usable, modern living space.
‍
It highlights why asbestos management is essential before undertaking any refurbishment.
