Asbestos removal near Fyfield

Asbestos removal in Fyfield

Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, since the right method depends on what it is. Common materials are cement soffits, gutters and downpipes and textured coatings, and typical jobs are garage roofs and whole garages and old waste on site.

Rural removal near Fyfield can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. We identify materials before planning removal, as the right approach depends on the material.

A closer look at the materials

Textured coatings

Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.

Floor tiles

Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with power tools.

What affects the price in Fyfield

The price of asbestos removal depends mainly on:

  • The number of samples or the size of the building
  • Licensed or non-licensed
  • The size of the job
  • Disposal costs

A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

Common questions in Fyfield

How far is Fyfield from London?

Fyfield is about 57 miles from central London, well within our area.

Do you come out to small villages like Fyfield?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.

What does removal cost?

Every job is priced individually: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.

What if asbestos is found during building work?

Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.

Do you cover Fyfield?

We do: Fyfield is within the area we cover in Oxfordshire. Send the postcode and a few photos and we will quote.

Do I need a test or a survey?

A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.

Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?

Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The removal method depends on the material.

Do you give written quotes?

Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.

Step by step

Materials are released carefully and removed whole where possible, without breaking, dropping or power tools. When we’re done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows.

Can I do it myself?

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

Why people call us in Fyfield

Not all asbestos materials are equal: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, so their removal is licensed.

You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:

  • Broken sheets in gardens
  • Artex ceilings before renovation
  • Cement flues and gutters
  • Garage roof sheets

In older buildings across Fyfield, asbestos may be in later additions, so we identify materials before planning removal.

What your quote should include

  • What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof
  • Which laboratory analyses samples
  • If the price includes VAT
  • How the work will be done, and the controls used

What to check before booking

Duty holders and landlords in Fyfield

If your business premises in Fyfield were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.

The scope of asbestos removal

To be clear about the scope:

  • Making good is normally a separate job
  • We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified
  • Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date

If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before you book.

  • Panels and boards
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Flue pipes

More about this service

After we’ve finished in Fyfield

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:

  • Tell us about parking and access
  • File the consignment note
  • Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
  • Photos of the material and the route in help
