Asbestos removal for Compton

After we’ve finished in Compton

If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.

Looking after any asbestos that remains:

  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date

Things not to do

Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.

Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

Asbestos removal near Compton

In homes, in Compton as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. Work on these is normally non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls. From Artex before plastering and garage roofs and whole garages, we cover cement roof sheets, water tanks and floor tiles and more.

In Compton, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so the route is planned in advance. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

How we price asbestos removal

The price of asbestos removal depends mainly on:

  • How much there is
  • The number of samples or the size of the building
  • Access to the area
  • Disposal costs

Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: scope, method, waste disposal and paperwork.

Sending photos

Helpful photos:

  • An idea of size
  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it
  • Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
  • The access route

For a quote, call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

Can I do it myself?

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Compton

Damage from DIY, storms or accidents can make removal necessary, especially if broken material is lying around.

These come up again and again:

  • Old flues
  • Garage roof sheets
  • Artex ceilings before renovation
  • Floor tiles before a new floor

Landlords near Farnham station often time removal for when a property is empty.

What to look for in a quote

  • Which areas and materials are covered
  • Whether the job needs notifying
  • Waste disposal and the consignment note
  • VAT, clearly stated

What to check before you book

Compton: your questions answered

Do you come out to small villages like Compton?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.

Do you work near Farnham station?

Yes, we cover Compton and the area towards Farnham station, about 1.3 miles west.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

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

Do you give written quotes?

Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.

Should all asbestos be removed?

Not necessarily. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.

What does removal cost?

There is no fixed price: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.

Where does the asbestos go?

It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note as your record.

The process

We wear disposable coveralls and suitable respirators, and keep everyone else out of the work area. We’ll tell you when we have finished and what you’ll receive afterwards. We plan outdoor jobs in Compton to finish before dark: that means by about 3:55pm in December, or about 9:20pm in June.

  1. Tell us what needs removing and send photos
  2. We test the material if needed
  3. We plan the job and send a written quote
  4. On the day we set up, keep the material damp and remove it whole where we can
  5. The area is cleaned and the waste goes to a permitted site, with paperwork

Before we arrive

  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
  • Clear the way to the work area
  • Dig out previous surveys

Getting a price

Every job is quoted in writing. Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 with the details, including any survey or test you already have.
