Should you do it yourself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
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.
Choosing the right option
HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and disposal still has to be done properly. A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
Why us?
- Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone
- Records for your files
- London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
- We identify first and remove only what needs removing
Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you manage or own a block in Chelsham, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Good to know
To be clear about the scope:
- Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
