Landlords, managing agents and employers
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
A closer look at the materials
Wall panels
These can be removed in the same way as the roof sheets.
Corrugated sheets
The sheets are wrapped in heavy polythene for disposal.
DIY and asbestos
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Options to consider in Stone Corner
Be wary of a price that’s much lower than others: breaking the sheets, skipping the controls or fly-tipping the waste. Always ask for the consignment note. A price that looks too good to be true often is: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

FAQs for Stone Corner
Could my house in Stone Corner contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Stone Corner can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover Stone Corner and the area around Appledore (Kent) station?
Yes, we cover Stone Corner and the area towards Appledore (Kent) station, about 3.9 miles east.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, always.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
Can I paint my asbestos garage roof instead?
It can be done on a sound roof, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Never jet-wash or wire-brush it.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
