Asbestos removal for Crosspost
Crosspost questions
Do older homes in Crosspost have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you come out to small villages like Crosspost?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
Sometimes: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings normally aren’t licensed.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Do you work in flats?
We do. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
It doesn’t always have to come out: material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Asbestos removal for Crosspost properties
Removal is not always the answer. If it’s sound and not in the way, it may be better left, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s old floor tiles and black adhesive and old sheds and coal bunkers, we deal with cement roof sheets, textured coatings and flue pipes and more.
In Crosspost, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so the route is planned in advance. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, for your records.

What it might be made of
Asbestos cement
Cement products make up most removal jobs: roofs, gutters, flues and tanks. It’s kept damp and removed whole where possible.
Floor tiles
The adhesive underneath sometimes needs its own approach.
Choosing the right option
HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and the waste still has to go to a permitted site with the right paperwork. Our quotes are clear about VAT.
