For landlords, agents and businesses
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Should you do it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

A closer look at the materials
Asbestos cement
Cement products make up most removal jobs: roofs, gutters, flues and tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.
Textured coatings
We soften coatings and remove them wet, never sanding or dry scraping. Large-scale steam or gel removal must be notified.
What happens next
Any asbestos left elsewhere should stay on record, for anyone working there later.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- File the consignment note
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Let us know where we can park
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
Avoid these
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste.
