Asbestos removal for Bulphan properties

Asbestos materials are kept wet, taken out whole where we can, and never cut with power tools, so fibre release stays as low as possible. People often contact us about old sheds and coal bunkers and old cold water tanks, involving gutters and downpipes, water tanks and textured coatings.

Removal jobs around Bulphan often mean working in flats, back gardens and tight spaces, so we plan parking, access and the route for the waste. Everything is explained in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Weighing up your options

Be wary of a price that seems too low: proper controls, protective equipment, a registered waste carrier and disposal cost money. Always ask for the consignment note. Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, such as testing several materials at once.

What you get

  • Clear written quotes
  • Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
  • Identify first, remove only when needed
  • Clear advice on your options

See our prices page or the cost guide.

Can I do it myself?

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.

Prices and what affects them

When we quote, we look at:

  • How much waste there is
  • The quantity or area
  • Location, parking and any London charges
  • Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed

A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

What to photograph

To help us quote quickly, send:

  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it
  • The parking area
  • Visible markings
  • An overall view

Photos and a postcode help us quote quickly: use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.

Afterwards

Making good, such as a new roof or ceiling, is normally a separate job, so plan it before the removal date.

After we have finished:

  • Let us know where we can park
  • Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
  • Send photos of the material and the access
  • File the consignment note

Things not to do

Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

What’s the difference between a test and a survey?

Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.

A closer look at the materials

Textured coatings

Textured coatings are removed with wet or gel methods, never dry-scraped or sanded. Large-scale steam or gel removal must be notified.

Water tanks and flues

Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.

The scope of asbestos removal

So you know what to expect:

  • Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
  • Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
  • Making good is normally a separate job

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.

What we deal with

  • Flue pipes
  • Asbestos cement sheets
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Panels and boards
  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Soffits (cement)

  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Artex and textured coatings
  • Bitumen roof felt
