Which option is right?
Removing asbestos before building work avoids stopping the job halfway, rather than halting work when it’s found. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.

Emberton questions
Do you cover Emberton from London?
We cover Emberton, about 51 miles from central London.
Do older homes in Emberton have asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Emberton can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.
What happens to the waste?
It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note as your record.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
What does removal cost?
Every job is priced individually: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.
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.
Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?
HSE advises the public not to try, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.
Looking after things afterwards
Any asbestos left elsewhere should stay on record, so future trades know about it.
A few practical points:
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Keep children and pets away on the day
What to avoid
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste.
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.

If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Emberton, you have a duty to 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.
