Common questions in Durford Wood
How far is Durford Wood from London?
We cover Durford Wood, about 47 miles from central London.
Do you cover Durford Wood and the area around Liss station?
Yes, we cover Durford Wood and the area towards Liss station, about 1 mile north.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You cannot tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Do you test before removing asbestos in Durford Wood?
Unless it’s already been identified, yes: the way it’s removed depends on the material.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material. To do that, ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
Should you do it yourself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
