How to choose an asbestos contractor

How asbestos removal works in Chartwell Green

If your builder has found suspect material in Chartwell Green, stop work in that area and keep people away. We’ll identify it and plan what happens next. Whether it’s outbuildings with cement roofs and old cold water tanks, we cover cement soffits, floor tiles and gutters and downpipes and more.

Properties in places like Chartwell Green with larger plots may have several outbuildings with cement roofs. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Afterwards

Making good, such as a new roof or ceiling, is normally a separate job, so plan it in advance.

After we have finished:

  • Let us know where we can park
  • Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
  • Tell us about any previous survey
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property

What to avoid

Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris.

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

What it costs

The price of asbestos removal depends mainly on:

  • How much waste there is
  • The number of samples or the size of the building
  • The type of material and its condition
  • The quantity or area

Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.

What to photograph

For a quick quote, include:

  • A close-up from a safe distance

For landlords, agents and businesses

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Chartwell Green must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.

Doing it yourself?

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

In older properties in Chartwell Green, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we identify materials before planning removal. In a school like Townhill Infant School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use.

FAQs for Chartwell Green

How far is Chartwell Green from London?

Chartwell Green is about 67 miles from central London, well within our area.

Could my house in Chartwell Green contain asbestos?

Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

What happens to the waste?

It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you receive the consignment note.

Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials need a licensed contractor.

What does licensed work mean?

Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings normally are not licensed.

Do I need a test or a survey?

A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is normally needed.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

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

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
