Asbestos help in Asheridge
Asheridge: your questions answered
Do you cover Asheridge from London?
We cover Asheridge, about 28 miles from central London.
Do you cover small places like Asheridge?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We will identify it and advise on removal.
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 test before removing asbestos in Asheridge?
Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The right method depends on what the material is.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
Asbestos removal in Asheridge

After we have finished in Asheridge
If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.

Don’ts
Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
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.
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.
What’s included, and what isn’t
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is normally separate
- Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
What we deal with
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Water tanks
- Garage and shed roofs
- Bitumen roof felt
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Gutters and downpipes

Where asbestos turns up
Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, so their removal is licensed.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Artex before plastering
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
- Debris left from a previous job
- Cement water tanks in lofts
In older buildings across Asheridge, asbestos may be in later additions, so we test before we plan.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
- Which areas and materials are covered
- That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
- Any exclusions

- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
