How asbestos removal works in Bishop's Waltham

Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. Whether it’s old floor tiles and black adhesive and materials found mid-project, we cover cement roof sheets, water tanks and cement soffits.

Homes in Bishop's Waltham with bigger gardens may have several outbuildings with cement roofs, which can often be dealt with together. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

A closer look at the materials

Insulating board and lagging

Insulating board, lagging and sprayed coatings are licensed work in most cases.

Asbestos cement

Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.

The scope of asbestos removal

Some limits to bear in mind:

  • Some jobs must be notified first, which affects the start date
  • Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
  • Making good is normally a separate job

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Choosing the right option

Sealing or enclosing is sometimes possible, but it remains in place and has to be recorded. Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.

Why choose us

  • Reports and results you can share
  • Jobs planned to HSE guidance
  • No removal until we know what it is
  • Quotes that spell out the scope
