Asbestos removal in Crofton
Removal is planned, not improvised: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified. People often contact us about garage roofs and whole garages and Artex before plastering, involving cement roof sheets, flue pipes and water tanks.
In Crofton, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Where asbestos turns up
Old materials break down over time: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is often when people decide to remove them.
Get advice if you are dealing with any of these:
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Asbestos garages
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Asbestos found during building work
At a school such as Crofton School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.

Materials we deal with
Water tanks and flues
Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.
Bitumen and felt
Bitumen felts can contain asbestos, which is generally well bound.
Should you do it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Responsibilities for owners
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Crofton 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.
Step by step
We wear disposable coveralls and suitable respirators, and nobody else enters the work area. While we work, the area stays out of bounds, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. Outdoor removal in Crofton is planned to finish in daylight: that means by about 4:00pm in December, or about 9:20pm in June.

Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.

Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then ask for advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
