Asbestos help in Dunbridge

Asbestos removal near Dunbridge

We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, to keep fibre release as low as possible. Common materials are cement roof sheets, flue pipes and cement soffits, and people typically contact us about old waste on site and vinyl and thermoplastic tiles.

In Dunbridge, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so the route is planned in advance. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

Prices and what affects them

When we quote, we look at:

  • Material and condition
  • Location, parking and any London charges
  • The size of the job
  • The survey scope

Every quote says whether VAT is included, so you can compare like with like.

Photos that help

The most useful photos are:

  • How we’d reach it
  • Approximate dimensions
  • Visible markings
  • Street parking nearby

To get a quote, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, the material and some photos.

What happens next

Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you get the consignment note showing where the waste went.

After the job, keep these in mind:

  • Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property

What to avoid

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste.

Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

Choosing the right option

DIY removal might look cheaper, but HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and disposal still has to be done properly. A price that looks too good to be true often is: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

What you get

  • Clear written quotes
  • London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
  • Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone
  • Waste paperwork for every removal

What it might be made of

Water tanks and flues

Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.

What we deal with in Dunbridge

Some owners remove visible asbestos before a sale or letting, though in good condition it does not always need to go.

Common situations in older properties include:

  • Debris left from a previous job
  • Finds during refurbishment
  • Cement flues and gutters
  • Artex before plastering

For rentals close to Mottisfont & Dunbridge station, removal fits neatly between tenancies.

What your quote should include

  • Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
  • VAT, clearly stated
  • What is not included
  • What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples

How to choose an asbestos contractor

DIY and asbestos

Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

Step by step

On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, then keep the material damp throughout. We go over the plan with you first, so you know what’s happening. In winter, the light goes in Dunbridge by about 4:00pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.

  1. Describe the material and send pictures
  2. We test it if needed and plan the job
  3. You get a written quote, including waste disposal
  4. We remove it with controls to keep fibres down
  5. We clean up and send you the waste paperwork

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if something’s broken
  • Ensure we can get to the area
  • Move things out of the way carefully

Dunbridge questions

Do you cover small places like Dunbridge?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.

Do you cover Dunbridge from London?

We cover Dunbridge, about 70 miles from central London.

Can you help with a shop or office?

We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.

What if asbestos is found during building work?

Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.

What paperwork will I get?

Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.

What does licensed work mean?

It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.

Will I get the price in writing?

Every time: you get the scope and price in writing.
