Hungerford Green: your questions answered
Could my house in Hungerford Green contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Hungerford Green may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
Do you work in Hungerford Green?
Yes, we do: Hungerford Green is within the area we cover in Oxfordshire. Share the postcode and a short description for a quote.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
It depends on the material and the job. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed work; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
A closer look at the materials
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.
Floor tiles
Black bitumen adhesive may need treating separately.
After we’ve finished in Hungerford Green
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you get the consignment note showing where the waste went.
Going forward:
- File the consignment note
- Book the replacement before removal
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Share any survey or test results
What to avoid
Don’t put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Should you do it yourself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
