Asbestos help in Hungerford Green

Can I do it myself?

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.

Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

For businesses and landlords in Hungerford Green

If your business premises in Hungerford Green were built before 2000, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

Questions from Hungerford Green

Do you work on properties in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

Do you cover Hungerford Green and the area around Goring & Streatley station?

Yes, we cover Hungerford Green and the area towards Goring & Streatley station, about 2.9 miles east.

How quickly can you come out?

Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.

What does licensed work mean?

Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.

What if asbestos is found during building work?

Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.

Do you need a licence to remove an asbestos garage roof?

Usually not: HSE treats most asbestos cement sheet removal as non-licensed, but it must still be done properly.

Does weather affect the work?

Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.

How do I know if my property contains asbestos?

You can’t tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.

Which option is right?

Be wary of a price that’s much lower than others: broken sheets, no controls or illegal dumping. Ask for the waste paperwork. Every quote says whether VAT is included, so you can compare like with like.
