Asbestos removal for Hooe Common properties

Rural removal near Hooe Common can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. We start with a clear answer: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

FAQs for Hooe Common

Do you cover Hooe Common and the area around Cooden Beach station?

Yes. Cooden Beach station is about 2.6 miles south of Hooe Common, and we cover both.

How far is Hooe Common from London?

We cover Hooe Common, about 49 miles from central London.

Do you work in flats?

Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.

How do I know if my property contains asbestos?

Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.

How do I get a quote?

Just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?

Sometimes: lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, while most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.

Can I remove asbestos myself?

HSE advises against removing asbestos yourself. Licensed materials must only be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor.

Can I put asbestos in a skip?

No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.

Duty holders and landlords in Hooe Common

If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Hooe Common, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

Typical removal jobs in Hooe Common

Not all asbestos materials are equal: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, so their removal is licensed.

These are some of the things we deal with in Hooe Common:

  • Debris left from a previous job
  • Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
  • Garage roofs and whole garages
  • Finds during refurbishment

What it might be made of

Textured coatings

Textured coatings are removed with wet or gel methods, never dry-scraped or sanded. Larger-scale steam or gel removal is notifiable non-licensed work.

Insulating board and lagging

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

Doing it yourself?

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.

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

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
