How asbestos removal works in Aycliffe

Rural removal near Aycliffe can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

Do you work near Dover Priory station?
Yes, we cover Aycliffe and the area towards Dover Priory station, about 1.1 miles north-east.

Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.

Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Looking after things afterwards
File the waste paperwork safely: it shows the asbestos was disposed of legally.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Book the replacement before removal
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Let us know where we can park
- Keep children and pets away on the day
What to avoid
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

Doing it yourself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
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.
