About our asbestos removal in Holybourne

Before removal, the material has to be identified. If it hasn’t been tested, we sample it first, since the right method depends on what it is. Typical jobs include old sheds and coal bunkers and asbestos garages, involving gutters and downpipes, floor tiles and cement roof sheets.

In a village like Holybourne, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. Nothing is added to the job that you do not need, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Your options compared

Covering or sealing asbestos is sometimes an alternative to removal, but the asbestos is still there and needs recording for future work. Dealing with asbestos before building work is usually cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.

Why us?

  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing
  • Written quotes that say what’s included
  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory

Should you do it yourself?

A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Questions from Holybourne

How far is Holybourne from London?

We cover Holybourne, about 44 miles from central London.

Do older homes in Holybourne have asbestos?

If your home in Holybourne was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

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

Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

Do you work in Holybourne?

Yes, we do: our area includes Holybourne and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos and we will quote.

My builder has found asbestos. What now?

Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.

Can you help with a shop or office?

We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

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

Will I get the price in writing?

Yes, always.

Where asbestos turns up

Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and insulating board release fibres much more easily than asbestos cement, which is why that work is licensed.

Typical jobs in Holybourne include:

  • Broken sheets in gardens
  • Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
  • Asbestos found during building work
  • Outbuildings with cement roofs

For non-domestic buildings like Andrews' Endowed Church of England Primary School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.

What your quote should include

  • That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
  • Any exclusions
  • Waste disposal and the consignment note
  • Suitable insurance for the work

How to choose an asbestos contractor

Duty holders and landlords in Holybourne

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

If your business premises in Holybourne were built before 2000, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

What happens

As each piece comes out, it’s bagged or wrapped and labelled, then loaded for disposal at a permitted site. If anything unexpected turns up, we stop and talk to you. In winter, the light goes in Holybourne by about 4:00pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

  1. Describe the material and send pictures
  2. We test the material if needed
  3. We plan the method, controls, waste and any notification, and send a quote
  4. On the day we set up, keep the material damp and remove it whole where we can
  5. We clean up, dispose of the waste legally and send the consignment note

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the way to the work area
  • Mention any parking restrictions
  • Keep away from the material in the meantime

Materials, one by one

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement is the most common material we remove: roofs, gutters, flues and tanks. It’s kept damp and removed whole where possible.

Floor tiles

The adhesive underneath sometimes needs its own approach.

  • 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
