About our asbestos removal in Goring

Removal is not always the answer. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we’ll tell you honestly when that is the case. People often contact us about garage roof sheets and floor tiles before a new floor, including water tanks, flue pipes and textured coatings.

Properties in towns and villages like Goring with larger plots may have several outbuildings with cement roofs. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

Doing it yourself?

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.

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

What it costs

These are the main things that affect the price of asbestos removal:

  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space
  • How much waste there is
  • What the material is and its state
  • Parking and access charges

Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, such as testing several materials at once.

What to photograph

To help us quote quickly, send:

  • The parking area
  • Labels, if any
  • A rough size or measurement
  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it

To get a quote, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, the material and some photos.

What it might be made of

Floor tiles

The adhesive underneath sometimes needs its own approach.

Bitumen and felt

Bitumen felts can contain asbestos, generally tightly bound.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

For managing agents and freeholders in Goring, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.

Helpful guides

What we deal with in Goring

Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so pre-2000 buildings across Oxfordshire may contain it.

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

  • Old sheds and coal bunkers
  • Materials found mid-project
  • Old waste on site
  • Artex before plastering

Older buildings in Goring, near Church of St Thomas of Canterbury or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so materials are identified first.

Comparing quotes

  • Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed
  • What you’ll receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
  • The method and controls
  • What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples

Goring questions

Do you cover Goring and the area around Goring & Streatley station?

Yes, we cover Goring, including the streets around Goring & Streatley station.

Do you work on properties in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?

Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Tell us about the property and what you need.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.

How quickly can you come out?

Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.

Do I need to be at home?

We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.

What does removal cost?

There is no fixed price: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
