FAQs for Hillstreet
Do you cover small places like Hillstreet?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
Can I stay at home during removal?
For outdoor jobs, you can usually stay put. Indoor work areas are sealed off and kept clear while the work is done.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
What if the weather’s bad?
It depends on the job: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Asbestos removal in Hillstreet
Asbestos materials are kept wet, taken out whole where we can, and never cut with power tools, so fibre release stays as low as possible. We often deal with floor tiles, flue pipes and cement roof sheets, and people normally contact us about textured coatings and asbestos garages.
In Hillstreet, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.
