Asbestos removal in Cole Henley

For businesses and landlords in Cole Henley

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

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

Asbestos removal in Cole Henley

Cole Henley: your questions answered

Is asbestos common in Cole Henley homes?

If your home in Cole Henley 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 Cole Henley and the area around Whitchurch (Hampshire) station?

Yes, we cover Cole Henley and the area towards Whitchurch (Hampshire) station, about 1.4 miles south.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

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

How much does asbestos removal cost in Cole Henley?

It depends on the material, how much there is, its condition, access and disposal. Every job gets a written quote.

Can you quote from photos?

Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.

Could my home contain asbestos?

Looking won’t tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.

Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?

Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The removal method depends on the material.

Do I need to move out?

Outdoor work rarely affects you indoors. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.

Can I do it myself?

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.

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

What happens next

File the waste paperwork safely: it shows the asbestos was disposed of legally.

Keeping things safe:

  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Photos of the material and the route in help
  • Tell us about parking and access

Avoid these

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

Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Step by step

We unfix materials and take them out in whole pieces where we can, without breaking, dropping or power tools. The work area is kept clear while we’re working, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. Outdoor removal in Cole Henley is planned to finish in daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:25pm.

  1. Send us the postcode and photos
  2. We work out what category the work falls into
  3. We book the work and notify if required
  4. On the day we set up, remove and bag the material
  5. We dispose of the waste legally and send the paperwork

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep away from the material in the meantime
  • Ensure we can get to the area
  • Dig out previous surveys
