Farley Wood questions
How far is Farley Wood from London?
We cover Farley Wood, about 30 miles from central London.
Is asbestos common in Farley Wood homes?
If your home in Farley Wood was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
What if my house is newer?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Will I get the price in writing?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
Do you work in Farley Wood?
We do: our area includes Farley Wood and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description and we will quote.
After we have finished in Farley Wood
Replacement work is normally separate, so plan it in advance.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
Don’ts
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
