Responsibilities for owners
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Coursehorn must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
Common questions in Coursehorn
Do you come out to small villages like Coursehorn?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Could my house in Coursehorn contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
When can you start?
That depends on the work and current bookings. You will get available dates with the quote.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Where does the asbestos go?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
