Asbestos removal near Goodley Stock

In homes, in Goodley Stock as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. Work on these is usually non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, which still means proper controls. From cement flues and gutters and loft water tanks, we cover gutters and downpipes, water tanks and cement roof sheets.

In Goodley Stock, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so the route is planned in advance. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

Where asbestos turns up

Old materials break down over time: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is often when people decide to remove them.

These are some of the things we deal with in Goodley Stock:

  • Loft water tanks
  • Old flues
  • Materials found mid-project
  • Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles

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

What to check before booking

Responsibilities for owners

Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.

The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Doing it yourself?

If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.

With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Your options compared

Should it come out? Sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is normally right. Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, such as testing several materials at once.

What you get

  • Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
  • Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations
  • Clear written quotes
  • Homes, rented property and workplaces

Take a look at how we price jobs and published price ranges.

What happens next

Keep the consignment note with your property records: it shows the asbestos was disposed of legally.

To avoid problems in future:

  • Share any survey or test results
  • Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
  • Book the replacement before removal
  • Make sure pets and children are elsewhere

Things not to do

Don’t put asbestos in household bins or skips.

Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

The process

On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, and keep the material wet as we work. The work area is kept clear while we are working, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. In winter, the light goes in Goodley Stock by about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.

  1. Get in touch with the details of the job
  2. We work out what category the work falls into
  3. We agree a date and any notification needed
  4. On the day we set up, remove and bag the material
  5. We dispose of the waste legally and send the paperwork

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Find any old asbestos reports
  • Clear the way to the work area

What does licensed work mean?

Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.

What’s the difference between a test and a survey?

Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is usually needed.

Can you help with a flat?

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

What if the weather’s bad?

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

Should all asbestos be removed?

No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
