Asbestos removal for Booker
Asbestos removal for Booker properties
Every removal job in Booker is planned first: the method, the controls, the waste and any notification needed. Common materials are flue pipes, cement roof sheets and cement soffits, and typical jobs are asbestos garages and old sheds and coal bunkers.
In a smaller place like Booker, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, with access through the garden or drive. We only recommend work that is needed.

For landlords, agents and businesses
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
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.
After the job
If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, because the plan may need to change.
Once we’re done:
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Let us know where we can park
Avoid these
Do not let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.
Don’t put asbestos in household bins or skips.

Doing it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials need a licensed contractor.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
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.
