What else we do in Clifton Hampden
Duty holders and landlords in Clifton Hampden
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Clifton Hampden must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Common reasons for removal jobs in Clifton Hampden
Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: whatever the work will touch should come out first.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Cement flues and gutters
- Loft water tanks
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Old waste on site
For non-domestic buildings like Clifton Hampden Church of England Primary School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.

What it might be made of
Water tanks and flues
A Gas Safe engineer disconnects any gas appliance first.
Textured coatings
Textured coatings are removed with wet or gel methods, never dry-scraped or sanded. Large-scale steam or gel removal must be notified.
Which option is right?
Covering or sealing asbestos is sometimes an alternative to removal, but it remains in place and has to be recorded. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
Why choose us
- Samples analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Domestic and commercial work
- Reports and results you can share
- Clear written quotes
Read how we quote and our cost guide.
What happens next

After we’ve finished:
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Tell us about parking and access
Don’ts

Clifton Hampden questions
Could my house in Clifton Hampden contain asbestos?
If your home in Clifton Hampden was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover Clifton Hampden and the area around Culham station?
Yes. Culham station is about 1.1 miles west of Clifton Hampden, and we cover both.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
What happens to the waste?
It goes to a permitted site, properly packaged, with a registered carrier, and you get the consignment note.
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.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
Sometimes: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings normally aren’t licensed.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.
Doing it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
