Asbestos removal in George Green

Asbestos removal in George Green

Removal is planned, not improvised: the method, the controls, the waste and any notification needed. Typical materials include cement soffits, textured coatings and gutters and downpipes, and people generally contact us about textured coatings and finds during refurbishment.

In a village like George Green, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, where access across fields or yards needs planning. Everything is explained in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Responsibilities for owners

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.

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.

Weighing up your options

Covering or sealing asbestos is sometimes an alternative to removal, but the asbestos is still there and needs recording for future work. There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.

What you get

  • Work done to the regulations
  • Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
  • Quotes that spell out the scope
  • London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond

Where asbestos turns up

Some owners remove visible asbestos before a sale or letting, though in good condition it doesn’t always need to go.

Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:

  • Garage roof sheets
  • Outbuildings with cement roofs
  • Loft water tanks
  • Asbestos found during building work

At a school such as Wexham Court Primary School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.

Questions from George Green

Do you cover George Green from London?

We cover George Green, about 20 miles from central London.

Do you work near Langley station?

Yes. Langley station is about 1.2 miles south-east of George Green, and we cover both.

Can I put asbestos in a skip?

Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.

Can you help with a shop or office?

Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.

Does weather affect the work?

That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.

Do you test before removing asbestos in George Green?

Unless it’s already been identified, yes: the method depends on what the material is.

What it might be made of

Bitumen and felt

We remove them without cutting with power tools.

Water tanks and flues

Tanks and flues are disconnected first, then removed with minimal breakage.

What’s included, and what is not

Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:

  • Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
  • Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is typically separate
  • We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Service details

Prices and what affects them

What changes the cost:

  • How much waste there is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
  • What the material is and its state

How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

What to photograph

Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them without disturbing anything:

  • Approximate dimensions
  • Labels, if any
  • Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
  • How we’d reach it

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos and the postcode: call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.

What happens next

Making good, such as a new roof or ceiling, is normally a separate job, so plan it before the removal date.

Staying safe afterwards:

  • Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
  • Share any survey or test results
  • Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
  • Let us know where we can park

Avoid these

Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.

How it works

At the end, the work area is cleaned with suitable methods and checked. Nobody else needs to be in the work area, so please keep children and pets away. We plan outdoor jobs in George Green to finish before dark: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:25pm.

  1. Describe the material and send pictures
  2. If it hasn’t been identified, we sample it first
  3. We plan the job and send a written quote
  4. We remove the material with controls to keep fibres down
  5. We clean up, dispose of the waste legally and send the consignment note

How to prepare

  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
  • Let neighbours know if the work is near them
  • Dig out previous surveys
