Asbestos removal near Church Enstone

Church Enstone: your questions answered

Do you cover Church Enstone from London?

Church Enstone is about 65 miles from central London, well within our area.

Do you work near Charlbury station?

Yes, we cover Church Enstone and the area towards Charlbury station, about 3.8 miles south-west.

Do I need to move out?

It depends on the job: outdoor jobs do not typically affect you. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we have finished.

Where does the asbestos go?

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

Can you help with a shop or office?

Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.

When can you start?

Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.

How asbestos removal works in Church Enstone

Rural removal near Church Enstone can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. We explain what we find in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

DIY and asbestos

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.

For businesses and landlords in Church Enstone

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Church Enstone, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

What it might be made of

Insulating board and lagging

It needs an HSE-licensed contractor and 14 days’ notice.

Textured coatings

Taking the boards down can be an alternative.

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 quantity or area
  • Location, parking and any London charges

Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

What to photograph

When you send photos, these help most:

  • An overall view
  • Labels, if any
  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it
  • The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch

Include any existing survey or test when you ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page; it helps us quote accurately.

Your options compared

Very cheap quotes can be a warning sign: controls, equipment and legal disposal all cost money. Ask to see the waste paperwork. Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.

Why choose us

  • London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
  • Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone
  • Accredited laboratory results
  • Work done to the regulations

See our prices page or published price ranges.

After the job

If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, because the plan may need to change.

If asbestos stays in the building:

  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Share any survey or test results
  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • Let us know where we can park

Avoid these

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

Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
