- Let us know where we can park
What to avoid
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Where asbestos turns up
Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, so their removal is licensed.

- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
- Garage roof sheets
- Cement water tanks in lofts
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
Landlords near Saunderton station often time removal for when a property is empty.
Before booking anyone
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- What you will receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you will get a consignment note
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
Should you do it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
