Asbestos removal for Grafham properties

Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If it hasn’t been tested, we sample it first, because the method depends on the material. Typical materials include gutters and downpipes, water tanks and cement roof sheets, and people normally contact us about loft water tanks and cement flues and gutters.

In places like Grafham, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

Your options compared

Should it come out? Sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. Dealing with asbestos before building work is generally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.

What you get

  • Domestic and commercial work
  • Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
  • Jobs planned to HSE guidance
  • Waste paperwork for every removal

Read our prices page or our cost guide.

Looking after things afterwards

After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.

Staying safe afterwards:

  • Tell us about any previous survey
  • Send photos of the material and the access
  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone

What to avoid

Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.

Materials, one by one

Floor tiles

Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with power tools.

Textured coatings

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

Your questions about asbestos removal in Grafham

Do you cover small places like Grafham?

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.

Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

What if the weather’s bad?

Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.

What paperwork will I get?

Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.

Do you work in Grafham?

Yes, Grafham is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.

Could my home contain asbestos?

You can’t tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.

What does removal cost?

It depends on the material, how much there is, its condition, access and disposal. Every job gets a written quote.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Grafham

Materials deteriorate with age: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is when removal comes up.

People generally contact us about one of these:

  • Old waste on site
  • Outbuildings with cement roofs
  • Asbestos garages
  • Finds during refurbishment

In older buildings across Grafham, asbestos may be in later additions, so we test before we plan.

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the job needs notifying
  • What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
  • Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
  • For licensed work, a valid HSE licence

For businesses and landlords in Grafham

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

Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

Doing it yourself?

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.

A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

Step by step

On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, then keep the material damp throughout. We arrive at the agreed time, check the area and explain what we will do before we start. In winter, the light goes in Grafham by about 3:55pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

  1. Share photos, the postcode and any survey or test you have
  2. We identify the material and work out whether the job is licensed, notifiable or non-licensed
  3. We quote in writing, including the waste
  4. On the agreed date we set up the work area and remove the material carefully
  5. We clean the area and send the consignment note

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions
  • Move things out of the way carefully
  • Let neighbours know if the work is near them
