It was around seven years ago that the HSE first suggested that the Beech Group needed to do more large scale asbestos removal to maintain its licence. They acknowledged that we knew what we were doing, but that they were trying to clamp down on the number of license holders. We knew we had what it took, so we stepped up to the plate.

Since that day the new division has grown rapidly and now has a depth of experience and qualification that is the envy of many. The current employed personnel number around 30 and we have all our own equipment, including a brand-new 16 man DCU. The way Beech Group deal with safety and procedure shows that we mean business. Our asbestos removal projects now account for a high proportion of our work every year.
