Your questions about asbestos removal in Broadstone
Do you cover Broadstone from London?
Broadstone is about 39 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you come out to small villages like Broadstone?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
What does licensed work mean?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Do you work in Broadstone?
Yes, we do: our area includes Broadstone and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description and we’ll quote.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Weighing up your options
Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and won’t be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is normally right. Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
