How asbestos removal works in Bletchingley

We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, so fibre release stays as low as possible. People often contact us about asbestos garages and loft water tanks, involving flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and water tanks.

Rural removal near Bletchingley can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. Paperwork is part of every job, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

A closer look at the materials

Insulating board and lagging

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

Bitumen and felt

They’re removed by hand.

What we deal with in Bletchingley

Materials deteriorate with age: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is when removal comes up.

If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:

  • Asbestos garages
  • Old sheds and coal bunkers
  • Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
  • Artex ceilings before renovation

In older buildings across Bletchingley, asbestos may be in later additions, so we test before we plan.

What your quote should include

What to check before booking

Duty holders and landlords in Bletchingley

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.

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

FAQs for Bletchingley

Do you cover small places like Bletchingley?

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.

Do you cover Bletchingley from London?

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.

Is asbestos removal licensed?

It depends on the material and the job. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed work; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.

Use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

Can I remove asbestos myself?

HSE’s advice is not to do it yourself, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.

Helpful guides

Should you do it yourself?

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
