Asbestos removal in Burntcommon

Afterwards

If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.

Going forward:

  • Book the replacement before removal
  • Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Send photos of the material and the access

Avoid these

Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.

Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.

How asbestos removal works in Burntcommon

Removal is planned, not improvised: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified. Typical jobs include vinyl and thermoplastic tiles and old waste on site, including cement soffits, floor tiles and cement roof sheets.

Rural removal near Burntcommon can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. Everything is explained in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

A closer look at the materials

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement is the most common material we remove: roofs, gutters, flues and tanks. It’s kept damp and removed whole where possible.

Bitumen and felt

They’re removed by hand.

Can I do it myself?

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

What’s included, and what is not

Worth knowing before you book:

  • Making good is normally a separate job
  • Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
  • We do not remove anything until it’s been identified

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

What we deal with

  • Asbestos cement sheets
  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Soffits (cement)
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Panels and boards
  • Artex and textured coatings
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Bitumen roof felt
  • Flue pipes
  • Water tanks
