Should you do it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
FAQs for Bosham
Is asbestos common in Bosham homes?
If your home in Bosham was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Are garage roofs in Bosham usually asbestos?
Older garages often do, but not all. Only a test can confirm it.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if it’s sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is difficult. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Do not try to clean up the debris yourself, then contact a professional.
Where do the sheets go?
Each sheet is wrapped, labelled and taken away for disposal at a permitted site.
Prices and what affects them
Our quotes take into account:
- Disposal costs
- How easy it is to reach
- What the material is and its state
- Licensed or non-licensed
Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, such as testing several materials at once.
Helping us quote
When you send photos, these help most:
- A clear close-up
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- Visible markings
- An overall view
Include any existing survey or test when you call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form; it helps us quote accurately.
