Asbestos removal for Hurstbourne Priors properties

In homes, in Hurstbourne Priors as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. Work on these is normally non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, which still means proper controls. From asbestos found during building work and vinyl and thermoplastic tiles, we cover gutters and downpipes, floor tiles and cement soffits.

In places like Hurstbourne Priors, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, for your records.

More about this service

Should you do it yourself?

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

Where asbestos turns up

Damage from DIY, storms or accidents can make removal necessary, especially if broken material is lying around.

If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:

  • Asbestos garages
  • Broken sheets in gardens
  • Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
  • Finds during refurbishment

In older properties in Hurstbourne Priors, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so materials are identified first.

Before you book anyone

  • Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed
  • Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
  • VAT, clearly stated
  • How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you will get a consignment note

What to check before booking

Your questions about asbestos removal in Hurstbourne Priors

Is asbestos common in Hurstbourne Priors homes?

Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Do you come out to small villages like Hurstbourne Priors?

We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.

Where does the asbestos go?

It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site, and you receive the consignment note.

Should all asbestos be removed?

Not necessarily. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.

Do you give written quotes?

Yes, always.

Can I remove asbestos myself?

HSE advises the public not to try, and higher-risk materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

Can you help with a shop or office?

Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.

Is asbestos removal licensed?

Not always. Cement and textured coatings are usually non-licensed; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.

Duty holders and landlords in Hurstbourne Priors

Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
