Remenham questions
How far is Remenham from London?
Remenham is about 34 miles from central London, well within our area.
Is asbestos common in Remenham homes?
Any home in Remenham built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You cannot tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Is my garage roof in Remenham asbestos?
Pre-2000 grey corrugated sheeting often is, but only a test confirms it. We can test a sample.
How long will the job take?
Size, access and condition decide, though a single garage is typically quick once we are set up.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
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.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, so identifying it before work is important.
