Asbestos removal near Dunsbury
Asbestos removal near Dunsbury
If your builder has found suspect material in Dunsbury, work should stop there and people kept out. We can test it and, if needed, plan its removal. People often contact us about Artex before plastering and materials found mid-project, including cement roof sheets, floor tiles and flue pipes.
Rural removal near Dunsbury can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

Choosing the right option
Dealing with asbestos before work starts keeps the project on track, when everything has to wait for it to be dealt with. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

Dunsbury: your questions answered
Is asbestos common in Dunsbury homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Dunsbury may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you come out to small villages like Dunsbury?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
Not always. Cement and textured coatings are usually non-licensed; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.
How can I get a price?
Just ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
What happens to the waste?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
Should you do it yourself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

These are some of the things we deal with in Dunsbury:

In older properties in Dunsbury, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so materials are identified first.

- Any exclusions
- The method and controls

Some practical advice:

- Share any survey or test results
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Let us know where we can park
What to avoid
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

For landlords, agents and businesses
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
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.
