DIY and asbestos

If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.

Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Asbestos removal near Ibworth

After removal, the work area is cleaned and the waste is double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken away, with a consignment note for your records. From textured coatings and garage roofs and whole garages, we deal with water tanks, cement roof sheets and floor tiles and more.

In a village like Ibworth, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Materials, one by one

Water tanks and flues

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

Bitumen and felt

Some old roof felts and bitumen products contain asbestos, which is typically well bound.

The process

Unexpected materials mean we pause and discuss, before changing the plan. While we work, the area stays out of bounds, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. Late-December sunset in Ibworth is about 4:00pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.

  1. Describe the material and send pictures
  2. If it hasn’t been identified, we sample it first
  3. We plan the method, controls, waste and any notification, and send a quote
  4. We remove the material with controls to keep fibres down
  5. The area is cleaned and the waste goes to a permitted site, with paperwork

How to prepare

  • Find any old asbestos reports
  • Don’t disturb the material before we get there
  • Tell us about anything that is already damaged

Getting a price

We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. To start, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.

Ibworth: your questions answered

Do you cover small places like Ibworth?

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

Do older homes in Ibworth 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 Ibworth can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Which asbestos work needs a licence?

It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.

Can I remove asbestos myself?

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials must only be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor.

Do you test before removing asbestos in Ibworth?

Unless it’s already been identified, yes: the way it’s removed depends on the material.

Can you help a business or landlord?

We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.

How do I get a quote?

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.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.

Looking after things afterwards

Replacement work is normally separate, so plan it before the removal date.

To avoid problems in future:

  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • File the consignment note

Things not to do

Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

What we deal with in Ibworth

Materials deteriorate with age: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is often when people decide to remove them.

People generally contact us about one of these:

  • Artex ceilings before renovation
  • Floor tiles before a new floor
  • Finds during refurbishment
  • Asbestos garages

If you let property near Overton station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.
