Asbestos removal for Horne

Horne: your questions answered

Do you cover Horne from London?

We cover Horne, about 22 miles from central London.

Do you cover Horne and the area around Godstone station?

Yes, we cover Horne and the area towards Godstone station, about 2.6 miles north-east.

Could my home contain asbestos?

Looking will not tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.

What happens to the waste?

It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note for your records.

What paperwork will I get?

Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.

How can I get a price?

Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is. Then call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

About our asbestos removal in Horne

We remove asbestos from homes, rented property and commercial buildings across Horne: cement sheets and roofs, flues, tanks, gutters, textured coatings and floor tiles. Each job follows HSE guidance, and the waste goes to a permitted site. Typical materials include flue pipes, cement roof sheets and floor tiles, and typical jobs are finds during refurbishment and old waste on site.

In Horne, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so you know where you stand.

Responsibilities for owners

If you run a business from older premises in Horne, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

What happens next

If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, for anyone working there later.

If asbestos stays in the building:

  • Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
  • Share any survey or test results
  • Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Photos of the material and the route in help

Avoid these

Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of.

Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

How it works

We wear disposable coveralls and suitable respirators, and nobody else enters the work area. Unexpected finds are discussed with you first before carrying on. We plan outdoor jobs in Horne to finish before dark: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:20pm.

  1. Start with photos, the postcode and any existing reports
  2. We identify the material and work out whether the job is licensed, notifiable or non-licensed
  3. A written quote follows, covering method, controls and disposal
  4. On the agreed date we set up the work area and remove the material carefully
  5. We clean the area and send the consignment note

Before we arrive

  • Dig out previous surveys
  • Clear access to the area, loft or garage
  • Let us know where we can park

Materials we deal with

Bitumen and felt

They’re removed by hand.

Water tanks and flues

Tanks and flues are disconnected first, then removed with minimal breakage.

DIY and asbestos

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

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

What we do and don’t cover

Before you book, note that:

  • Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
  • Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
  • We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified

If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.

Materials in Horne

  • Soffits (cement)
  • Panels and boards
  • Bitumen roof felt
  • Asbestos cement sheets
  • Flue pipes
  • Water tanks
  • Artex and textured coatings
