How asbestos removal works in Churt
In homes, in Churt as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. HSE treats work on these as non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed in most cases, which still means proper controls. Common materials are gutters and downpipes, cement soffits and textured coatings, and typical jobs are cement flues and gutters and finds during refurbishment.
In a village like Churt, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

Can I do it myself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
