For landlords, agents and businesses
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
What happens
Access is by ladders, towers or crawling boards, not the fragile sheets. While we work, the area stays out of bounds, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. Late-December sunset in Great Horwood is about 3:55pm, so we start early on winter roof jobs.
- Send photos of the garage, the roof and the access
- If needed, we test a sample to confirm it’s asbestos cement
- We plan the job and the waste, and send a quote
- We damp the sheets, release the fixings and lower them whole
- The sheets are wrapped and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away on the day

Could my house in Great Horwood contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you help with a flat?

Should you do it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
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.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
