Dagenham Dock questions
Do you work near Dagenham Dock station?
Yes. Dagenham Dock station is about 0.5 miles north of Dagenham Dock, and we cover both.
Is asbestos common in Dagenham Dock homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
Do you work in Dagenham Dock?
Yes. We cover Dagenham Dock and the surrounding area as part of Greater London. Send us the postcode for a quote.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
What we deal with in Dagenham Dock
Moss and lichen spread on older sheets, but scrubbing or jet-washing them off releases fibres.
