The use of asbestos in new construction projects might have been banned in the UK way back in 1999, but this does not mean the fibrous silicate mineral has become a merely “historical” issue. This is demonstrated in part by the wide range of sites that still exist, across Norwich, Norfolk, and the wider UK, where asbestos contaminates the ground or soil.
You might be considering our services in relation to asbestos-contaminated land because you are responsible for certain land, soil, or construction waste and believe that it may contain asbestos. If so, you can place the very greatest trust in our comprehensive asbestos management and removal services and expertise.

Norwich asbestos contaminated land and soil: the essentials to know
Check out our list below of some of the most frequently asked questions about asbestos contaminated land and soil. If you are still unsure about any aspect of asbestos or would like to request a quote for any of our services, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.
How does land or soil become contaminated with asbestos?
Like other parts of the UK, the Norwich area is home to a wide range of brownfield sites. Many of these sites may harbour remnants of historical ACMs, often because a building that formerly stood on the site was demolished without the asbestos materials inside being removed first.
However, it is crucial to be aware that “greenfield” locations can also sometimes be contaminated with asbestos. If waste disposal operations previously took place at the given site, especially if this was during a time when asbestos laws were much less strict than they are today, it is perfectly possible that there could be traces of asbestos in the ground.
What do you need to do if you suspect or believe asbestos is present in your soil or land?
As we touched on above, you will first need to confirm whether asbestos is actually present, alongside details such as the depth and type of any ACMs that are, indeed, found in the soil.
However, the exact steps that you will need to take will depend on your specific plans for the site. Our extensively trained and seasoned asbestos consultants can undertake two types of site investigations for asbestos-contaminated land: WAC testing and asbestos in soil testing.
It may turn out that you only require one of these forms of testing. This underscores the importance of engaging with the Oracle Solutions team before you make any definite decisions, so that we can advise and guide you on every aspect of your potentially contaminated site.
If asbestos is found on your site, will you need to have it removed?
It isn’t automatically the case that if asbestos is discovered to be present in your land, soil, or construction waste, removal of the now-banned substance will be necessary. Your exact decision in this regard will depend on the risk the material is judged to present to people who may potentially disturb and/or be exposed to it in the future.
In our work with commercial clients in and around Norwich here at Oracle Solutions, it is often concluded that asbestos found in the soil or land does need to be removed.
If this is the case for your site, we can provide the complete asbestos removal and disposal service, tailored to the specific requirements applicable to asbestos-contaminated land. This will involve us visiting the site, determining your exact needs from the removal operation, and then presenting you with an in-depth breakdown of the asbestos-contaminated waste that will be taken away and disposed of.
This will be followed by us carrying out the systematic asbestos removal work itself. Our highly trained site team will undertake this task in strictly controlled conditions. Once the actual removal of contaminated waste has been done, we will carry out a full, detailed check of the site. This will enable us to make sure every last bit of asbestos waste has been removed, in accordance with your request.
