Asbestos removal in Bockmer End

After removal, the work area is cleaned and the waste is double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken away, with a consignment note for your records. We often deal with cement soffits, gutters and downpipes and floor tiles, and people usually contact us about old cold water tanks and old flues.

Rural removal near Bockmer End can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Good to know

Here’s what asbestos removal covers, and what it does not:

  • Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
  • Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is usually separate
  • Some jobs must be notified first, so the timing needs planning

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Typical removal jobs in Bockmer End

Materials deteriorate with age: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is often when people decide to remove them.

Typical jobs in Bockmer End include:

  • Garage roof sheets
  • Finds during refurbishment
  • Cement flues and gutters
  • Artex ceilings before renovation

Older buildings in Bockmer End, near Church of St Peter and St Paul or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we test before we plan.

Choosing an asbestos contractor

Can I do it myself?

With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

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.

Materials, one by one

Floor tiles

The adhesive underneath sometimes needs its own approach.

Insulating board and lagging

Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

If you manage or own a block in Bockmer End, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.

FAQs for Bockmer End

Do you work near Marlow station?

Yes. Marlow station is about 2.8 miles east of Bockmer End, and we cover both.

Do you work on properties in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

Do you work on commercial premises?

Yes. Send us the details of the premises.

What does removal cost?

Every job is priced individually: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.

When can you start?

We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

It depends on what we do: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.

What happens next

If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.

Looking after any asbestos that remains:

  • Send photos of the material and the access
  • Book the replacement before removal
  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos

What to avoid

Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.

Don’t put asbestos in household bins or skips.

Choosing the right option

HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and disposal still has to be done properly. Access makes a big difference to cost, so tell us about access.
