Duty holders and landlords in Nutfield

For managing agents and freeholders in Nutfield, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.

The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.

Can I do it myself?

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.

Questions from Nutfield

Do you cover Nutfield and the area around Nutfield station?

Yes. Nutfield station is about 0.9 miles south of Nutfield, and we cover both.

Do you cover small places like Nutfield?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.

What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?

Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice.

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.

Can I just skim over it?

You can, if it’s intact: skimming or boarding over avoids disturbing it. Don’t sand it first, and keep a record that it’s there.

Call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

  2. We sample each different coating for testing
  3. If asbestos is found, we explain the options and quote
  4. We seal off each room and remove the coating wet, or take the boards down whole
