Asbestos removal in Eyhorne Street
In homes, in Eyhorne Street as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. HSE treats work on these as non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed in most cases, which still means proper controls. People often contact us about flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and finds during refurbishment, including cement roof sheets, cement soffits and gutters and downpipes.
In areas like Eyhorne Street, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. Clear answers come first: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Eyhorne Street
Old materials break down over time: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is often when people decide to remove them.
Typical jobs in Eyhorne Street include:
- Materials found mid-project
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Old flues
- Artex ceilings before renovation
Older buildings in Eyhorne Street, near All Saints Church or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we test before we plan.

First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings usually aren’t licensed.
