Asbestos removal for Finkley Down properties

Once the material is out, we clean up and bag or wrap the waste, and you get the waste paperwork. From asbestos garages and old waste on site, we cover cement soffits, cement roof sheets and water tanks.

Rural removal near Finkley Down can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

Materials, one by one

Water tanks and flues

Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.

Insulating board and lagging

Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.

What affects the price in Finkley Down

The price of asbestos removal depends mainly on:

Finkley Down: your questions answered

Do you cover Finkley Down from London?

We cover Finkley Down, about 61 miles from central London.

Do you cover Finkley Down and the area around Andover station?

Yes, we cover Finkley Down and the area towards Andover station, about 2.1 miles west.

Could my home contain asbestos?

If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.

Where does the asbestos go?

It goes to a permitted site, properly packaged, with a registered carrier, and you get the consignment note.

Can I remove asbestos myself?

HSE advises the public not to try, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.

Can you help with a flat?

Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.

What if the weather’s bad?

Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice.

Should you do it yourself?

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

What happens next

Keep the consignment note with your property records: it proves legal disposal.

Staying safe afterwards:

  • Let neighbours know if work is near them
  • Tell us about any previous survey
  • Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Let us know where we can park

What to avoid

Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.

Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.

What we do and do not cover

To be clear about the scope:

  • Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
  • Making good is normally a separate job
  • Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
