For businesses and landlords in King's Somborne

Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

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

How it works

Our team uses disposable coveralls and respiratory protection, and keep everyone else out of the work area. The work area is kept clear while we’re working. Outdoor removal in King's Somborne is planned to finish in daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:25pm.

  1. Send us the postcode and photos
  2. We work out what category the work falls into
  3. We book the work and notify if required
  4. We set up the work area and remove the material
  5. The waste goes to a permitted site with a consignment note

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep away from the material in the meantime
  • Clear the way to the work area
  • Find any old asbestos reports

After the job

Keep the consignment note with your property records: it proves legal disposal.

To avoid problems in future:

  • Photos of the material and the route in help
  • Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
  • Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Book the replacement before removal

Don’ts

Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.

Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.

A closer look at the materials

Bitumen and felt

They’re removed by hand.

Textured coatings

Taking the boards down can be an alternative.

Doing it yourself?

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Your questions about asbestos removal in King's Somborne

Do older homes in King's Somborne have asbestos?

Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

How far is King's Somborne from London?

King's Somborne is about 67 miles from central London, well within our area.

What if asbestos is found during building work?

Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.

Is asbestos dangerous?

Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.

Do you work on commercial premises?

Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.

What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?

Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then get advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.

Can I stay at home during removal?

Outdoor work rarely affects you indoors. Indoor work areas are sealed off and kept clear while the work is done.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
