Doing it yourself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Halling questions
Do you work near Halling station?
Yes, we cover Halling, including the streets around Halling station.
Do you cover small places like Halling?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
Is my garage roof in Halling asbestos?
Pre-2000 grey corrugated sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. We can test a sample.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then ask for advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
Do you take down the walls too?
Cement walls can come down the same way as the roof; brickwork and slabs need a builder.
