For landlords, agents and businesses
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
How asbestos removal works in Higher Denham
Much of the asbestos found in homes is asbestos cement, textured coating or floor tiles. Work on these is usually non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, which still means proper controls. People often contact us about asbestos garages and cement water tanks in lofts, including gutters and downpipes, flue pipes and textured coatings.
Rural removal near Higher Denham can mean longer distances to carry waste, 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.

Materials, one by one
Bitumen and felt
Bitumen felts can contain asbestos, usually tightly bound.
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.
Typical removal jobs in Higher Denham
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so buildings across Buckinghamshire built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Asbestos found during building work
- Artex before plastering
- Garage roof sheets
- Loft water tanks
At a school such as Denham Green E-Act Primary Academy, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.
Questions to ask before you book

Your questions about asbestos removal in Higher Denham
How far is Higher Denham from London?
We cover Higher Denham, about 19 miles from central London.
Is asbestos common in Higher Denham homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Higher Denham may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Should all asbestos be removed?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
You cannot tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.
Can asbestos be left in place?
In many cases it can stay: if it’s in good condition and out of the way, it can stay. Record it and keep an eye on it.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Limits to be aware of
What’s in and what’s out:
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
- Some jobs must be notified first, which affects the start date
