Where asbestos turns up

Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: whatever the work will touch should come out first.

Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:

  • Old cold water tanks
  • Artex before plastering
  • Broken sheets in gardens
  • Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles

In older properties in Hedsor, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so materials are identified first.

What your quote should include

  • How the work will be done, and the controls used
  • Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
  • Any exclusions
  • Insurance appropriate to asbestos work

What to check before booking

About our asbestos removal in Hedsor

Every removal job in Hedsor is planned first: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified. People often contact us about debris left from a previous job and cement flues and gutters, involving textured coatings, cement roof sheets and gutters and downpipes.

In Hedsor, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. Nothing is added to the job that you do not need, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

How we price asbestos removal

The cost depends on:

  • How much there is
  • What the material is and its state
  • Location, parking and any London charges
  • Licensed or non-licensed

Our quotes are clear about VAT.

Sending photos

Photos often save us a visit:

  • A clear close-up
  • Damaged areas
  • Visible markings
  • An idea of size

We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. To start, call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.

Materials we deal with

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.

Insulating board and lagging

That work must be done by a contractor holding an HSE licence, with notification 14 days ahead.

Options to consider in Hedsor

DIY removal might look cheaper, but HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and disposal still has to be done properly. Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.

Why people choose us

  • Homes, rented property and workplaces
  • Quotes that spell out the scope
  • Reports and results you can share
  • Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations

See how we quote and published price ranges.

What happens next

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

Staying safe afterwards:

  • Let neighbours know if work is near them
  • File the consignment note
  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Send photos of the material and the access

Don’ts

Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.

Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris.

Hedsor questions

Do you cover Hedsor from London?

We cover Hedsor, about 26 miles from central London.

Do you cover Hedsor and the area around Bourne End station?

Yes. Bourne End station is about 1 mile west of Hedsor, and we cover both.

Do you cover Hedsor?

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

Can I put asbestos in a skip?

Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.

Is asbestos dangerous?

Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.

What paperwork will I get?

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

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

Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.

What happens

We wear disposable coveralls and suitable respirators, and nobody else enters the work area. On the day, we check the area and talk you through the plan first. In winter, the light goes in Hedsor by about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.

  1. Send us the postcode and photos
  2. We check whether it’s licensed, notifiable or non-licensed work
  3. We agree a date and any notification needed
  4. We set up the work area and remove the material
  5. The waste goes to a permitted site with a consignment note

Before we arrive

  • Clear belongings, but leave the material alone
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive

Should you do it yourself?

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012

  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
