FAQs for Ibstone
Do you work near Saunderton station?
Yes, we cover Ibstone and the area towards Saunderton station, about 4.6 miles north-east.
Do older homes in Ibstone have asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Ibstone can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The main risk is from disturbing it, which is why identifying it first matters.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
In many cases it can stay: if it’s in good condition and out of the way, it can stay. Record it and keep an eye on it.
Do I need to move out?
For outdoor jobs, you can typically stay put. Indoor work areas are sealed off and kept clear while the work is done.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we will arrange to see it.

Helpful guides
For landlords, agents and businesses
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Which option is right?
Be wary of a price that seems too low: proper controls, protective equipment, a registered waste carrier and disposal cost money. Always ask for the consignment note. Doing several things in one visit can help, such as testing several materials at once.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Ibstone
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so pre-2000 buildings across Buckinghamshire may contain it.
These come up again and again:
- Old waste on site
- Old cold water tanks
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Artex ceilings before renovation
In older buildings across Ibstone, asbestos may be in later additions, so we identify materials before planning removal.
