Asbestos help in Davington
Davington: your questions answered
Do you cover Davington and the area around Faversham station?
Yes, we cover Davington and the area towards Faversham station, about 0.6 miles south-east.
Is asbestos common in Davington homes?
Any home in Davington built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Do I need to move out?
That depends: outdoor jobs don’t normally affect you. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we have finished.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Will I get the price in writing?
Always: you get the scope and price in writing.

What else we do in Davington
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Looking after things afterwards
If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, as the method may need to change.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Share any survey or test results
- Book the replacement before removal
- Let us know where we can park
Things not to do
Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Do not let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of.
