About our asbestos removal in Hollingrove
Before removal, the material has to be identified. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. Typical materials include flue pipes, cement soffits and cement roof sheets, and typical jobs are old sheds and coal bunkers and debris left from a previous job.
In a village like Hollingrove, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, 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.
