Common questions in Hawley

Is asbestos common in Hawley homes?

It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Hawley can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you work near Blackwater station?

Yes. Blackwater station is close to the centre of Hawley, and we cover the whole area.

Will I get the price in writing?

Yes, always.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.

Can I remove asbestos myself?

HSE’s advice is not to do it yourself, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.

Is asbestos removal licensed?

It varies: lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, while most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.

Asbestos removal near Hawley

Removal is not always the answer. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we will tell you honestly when that’s the case. Typical jobs include flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and asbestos garages, involving gutters and downpipes, textured coatings and water tanks.

In a smaller place like Hawley, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, with access through the garden or drive. Every job comes with paperwork, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

After the job

If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.

After we’ve finished:

  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Book the replacement before removal
  • Photos of the material and the route in help
  • Tell us about any previous survey

Avoid these

Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.

Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

What’s included, and what isn’t

Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:

  • Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
  • Making good is normally a separate job
  • Some jobs must be notified first, so the timing needs planning

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

How it works

On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, then keep the material damp throughout. Unexpected finds are discussed with you first before carrying on. We plan outdoor jobs in Hawley 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. Start with photos, the postcode and any existing reports
  2. We confirm what the material is and what category of work it falls into
  3. A written quote follows, covering method, controls and disposal
  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

Getting ready

  • Keep the area clear of children and pets
  • Dig out previous surveys
  • Clear access to the area, loft or garage

Helpful guides

Prices and what affects them

What drives the price:

  • How much there is
  • How easy it is to reach
  • The type of material and its condition
  • The survey scope

We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

Sending photos

Photos often save us a visit:

  • The parking area
  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • Cracks or breaks
  • The access route

Tell us about the material, its location and your plans. Then use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.

What it might be made of

Water tanks and flues

Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.

Bitumen and felt

Bitumen felts can contain asbestos, typically tightly bound.

Doing it yourself?

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

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.

Choosing the right option

HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and disposal still has to be done properly. Our quotes are clear about VAT.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
