About our asbestos removal in Caldecote

Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, since the right method depends on what it is. Whether it’s old floor tiles and black adhesive and garage roofs and whole garages, we cover textured coatings, cement soffits and floor tiles and more.

In places like Caldecote, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, where access across fields or yards needs planning. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

DIY and asbestos

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

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

  1. Describe the material and send pictures
  2. We test the material if needed
  3. We plan the job and send a written quote
  4. We remove the material with controls to keep fibres down
  5. We clean up, dispose of the waste legally and send the consignment note

Preparing for the visit

  • Have any previous surveys or test results ready
  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
  • Tell us about anything that’s already damaged

Your questions about asbestos removal in Caldecote

How far is Caldecote from London?

Caldecote is about 48 miles from central London, well within our area.

Do you come out to small villages like Caldecote?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.

Can you help a business or landlord?

Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.

How can I get a price?

Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.

Do you give written quotes?

Every time: you get the scope and price in writing.

Do you cover Caldecote?

Yes, we do: our area includes Caldecote and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos and we will quote.

Weighing up your options

Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and will not be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. Dealing with asbestos before building work is usually cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.

How we price asbestos removal

The price of asbestos removal depends mainly on:

  • Disposal costs
  • Access to the area
  • Material and condition
  • Parking and access charges

How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.

Photos that help

For a quick quote, include:

  • A close-up from a safe distance
  • Damaged areas
  • The access route
  • A picture of the whole area

Photos from a safe distance help: do not touch the material, just send them through our quote form.

What we deal with in Caldecote

Old materials break down over time: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is often when people decide to remove them.

Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:

  • Outbuildings with cement roofs
  • Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
  • Materials found mid-project
  • Debris left from a previous job

Landlords near Milton Keynes Central station often time removal for when a property is empty.

What to look for in a quote

  • What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof
  • What you’ll receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
  • Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
  • Whether VAT is included

What to check before you book

Looking after things afterwards

Keep the consignment note with your property records: it shows the asbestos was disposed of legally.

After we’ve finished:

  • Share any survey or test results
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Let us know where we can park
  • File the consignment note

Things not to do

Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.

Materials, one by one

Textured coatings

Taking the boards down can be an alternative.

Bitumen and felt

They’re removed by hand.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
