What that changes here
In Brussels, asbestos is rarely a roof in corrugated sheets: it is in the cladding of an extension, in an old chimney stack or under a terrace. The quantities are small, the conditions difficult — occupied buildings, shared courtyards. The Brussels rules also differ from the Flemish ones; we apply those of the place we are working in.
Schaerbeek is the municipality of the 1890-1910 town house: tall, narrow facades, ornate cornices, mansard roofs in slate and a box gutter that disappears entirely behind the cornice. Around Josaphat Park and in Terdelt the 1930s are added to that, and their concrete tiles are now reaching the end of their life.
What we get called out for in Schaerbeek
In Schaerbeek nine calls out of ten are about water coming in through the cornice. The town houses there have a box gutter running from wall to wall, often still in lead or in zinc with no expansion joint, with a timber deck underneath quietly rotting. The second most common request is the lower slope of the mansard: slates working loose one after another.
Schaerbeek porte le code postal 1030 et se situe in the Brussels-Capital Region. Notre équipe part de Grimbergen, à 7 km : nous y planifions le désamiantage en même temps que les chantiers de Evere, Brussels et Molenbeek-Saint-Jean, pour qu’un déplacement serve plusieurs toitures.

Pour un devis, la visite à Schaerbeek se fixe en général sous quelques jours ouvrés. Nous partons de Grimbergen, à 7 km, et nous groupons nos visites par secteur : si un chantier tourne déjà cette semaine à Evere ou Brussels, cela peut aller plus vite. En cas de fuite active, nous venons d’abord bâcher et sécuriser ; le désamiantage n’est chiffrée qu’ensuite.
The most reliable criterion is the date: corrugated fibre cement sheets laid before 2001 almost always contain it. If in doubt, a laboratory analysis settles the question. In the meantime, do not scrape, break or pressure wash these sheets.
As a private individual you may remove non-friable asbestos on your own home, subject to strict precautions — but we advise against it. Breakage releases fibres, and above all the container park only accepts asbestos under specific conditions and in limited quantities. The real issue is not the removal, it is the traceability.
