Asbestos help in East Hill

Asbestos removal in East Hill

After removal, the work area is cleaned and the waste is double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken away, and you get the waste paperwork. Typical jobs include Artex before plastering and old sheds and coal bunkers, involving cement roof sheets, flue pipes and textured coatings.

Rural removal near East Hill can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. Clear answers come first: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

After we’ve finished in East Hill

If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, so future trades know about it.

Looking after any asbestos that remains:

  • Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Share any survey or test results

Things not to do

Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Materials, one by one

Floor tiles

Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with power tools.

Bitumen and felt

We remove them without cutting with power tools.

Choosing the right option

Should it come out? If the material is in good condition and won’t be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.

FAQs for East Hill

Do you cover East Hill from London?

East Hill is about 18 miles from central London, well within our area.

Do you work near Shoreham (Kent) station?

Yes, we cover East Hill and the area towards Shoreham (Kent) station, about 2.1 miles west.

Do I need to be at home?

We need access to every area involved in the job.

Can you quote from photos?

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we will arrange to see it.

Should all asbestos be removed?

Not always. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.

How do I get a quote?

Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. To do that, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.

What’s the difference between a test and a survey?

Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

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’s included, and what is not

Worth knowing before you book:

  • Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
  • Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is typically separate
  • Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

What we deal with

  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Water tanks
  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Soffits (cement)
  • Bitumen roof felt
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Asbestos cement sheets
  • Flue pipes
  • Artex and textured coatings
  • Panels and boards

How it works

  2. We confirm what the material is and what category of work it falls into
  3. We quote in writing, including the waste
  4. We set up, keep the material damp and take it out whole where we can

Should you do it yourself?

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.

With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in East Hill must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
