- Let us know where we can park
- Book the replacement before removal
Don’ts

Common reasons for removal jobs in Burley
Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, so their removal is licensed.
People typically contact us about one of these:
- Asbestos found during building work
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
For non-domestic buildings like Burley Primary School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.
What your quote should include

How we price asbestos removal

Questions from Burley
Is asbestos common in Burley homes?
If your home in Burley was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Burley and the area around Sway station?
Yes, we cover Burley and the area towards Sway station, about 5 miles south-east.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
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’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is usually needed.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
Asbestos removal in Burley: local notes

If you let property near Sway station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.

The scope of asbestos removal
So you know what to expect:
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is typically separate
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Materials we see
- Panels and boards
- Bitumen roof felt
- Water tanks
- Soffits (cement)
- Flue pipes
- Garage and shed roofs
- Gutters and downpipes
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Asbestos cement sheets

Choosing the right option
Should it come out? Sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is normally right. Sometimes a test shows removal isn’t needed, because the material is clear.
