Patrixbourne: your questions answered
Do you cover Patrixbourne from London?

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you work in Patrixbourne?
Yes. We cover Patrixbourne and the surrounding area as part of Kent. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.

DIY and asbestos
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Responsibilities for owners
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
