How it works

Our team uses disposable coveralls and respiratory protection, and keep everyone else out of the work area. We begin by confirming exactly what we are doing, so there’s no confusion. We plan outdoor jobs in Chute Forest to finish before dark: that means by about 4:00pm in December, or about 9:25pm in June.

  1. Describe the material and send pictures
  2. If it hasn’t been identified, we sample it first
  3. We plan the method, controls, waste and any notification, and send a quote
  4. On the day we set up, keep the material damp and remove it whole where we can
  5. We clean up, dispose of the waste legally and send the consignment note

How to prepare

  • Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Have any previous surveys or test results ready
  • Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material

Helpful guides

Asbestos removal near Chute Forest

You do not always have to remove asbestos. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we’ll say so. We often deal with textured coatings, cement soffits and floor tiles, and people typically contact us about asbestos found during building work and Artex before plastering.

In a village like Chute Forest, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. Clear answers come first: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

What it might be made of

Insulating board and lagging

Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.

Bitumen and felt

Some old roof felts and bitumen products contain asbestos, normally tightly bound.

Can I do it myself?

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

After the job

If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.

Looking after any asbestos that remains:

  • Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • Photos of the material and the route in help

What to avoid

Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris.

Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

Duty holders and landlords in Chute Forest

Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.

Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.

Where asbestos turns up

Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and insulating board release fibres much more easily than asbestos cement, which is why that work is licensed.

These come up again and again:

  • Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
  • Textured coatings
  • Floor tiles before a new floor
  • Asbestos found during building work

For rentals close to Andover station, removal fits neatly between tenancies.

What to check before you book

Chute Forest: your questions answered

Do you cover Chute Forest from London?

Chute Forest is about 65 miles from central London, well within our area.

Do you cover small places like Chute Forest?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.

When can you start?

It depends on the job and our diary. You will get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.

Do I need to move out?

It depends on the job: outdoor work rarely means leaving. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.

My builder has found asbestos. What now?

Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Yes. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.

What if my house is newer?

Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.

Can you help with a flat?

Yes, of course. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.

Choosing the right option

Be wary of a price that seems too low: proper controls, protective equipment, a registered waste carrier and disposal cost money. Ask to see the waste paperwork. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.
