Asbestos removal for Leigh Park

Where asbestos turns up

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

These come up again and again:

  • Old sheds and coal bunkers
  • Textured coatings
  • Old floor tiles and black adhesive
  • Materials found mid-project

At a school such as Riders Infant School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
  • Whether VAT is included
  • Whether the job needs notifying
  • The method and controls

How to choose an asbestos contractor

Asbestos removal for Leigh Park properties

Removal is not always the answer. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we will tell you honestly when that’s the case. People often contact us about asbestos garages and old waste on site, involving cement soffits, water tanks and textured coatings.

In a smaller place like Leigh Park, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, reached through gardens and drives. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

After we have finished in Leigh Park

If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.

A few practical points:

  • Book the replacement before removal
  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Share any survey or test results
  • Ensure pets and children are elsewhere

What to avoid

Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.

Your options compared

Covering or sealing asbestos is sometimes an alternative to removal, but the asbestos is still there and needs recording for future work. Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, because the material is clear.

Why us?

  • London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
  • Reports and results you can share
  • Jobs planned to HSE guidance
  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory

Leigh Park: your questions answered

How far is Leigh Park from London?

Leigh Park is about 58 miles from central London, well within our area.

Do you cover Leigh Park and the area around Havant station?

Yes. Havant station is about 1 mile south of Leigh Park, and we cover both.

My builder has found asbestos. What now?

Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.

Can you help a business or landlord?

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

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

It depends on what we do: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.

Do you cover Leigh Park?

Yes, Leigh Park is in our area. Send us the postcode for a quote.

What does licensed work mean?

Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.

Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?

HSE advises the public not to try, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.

Duty holders and landlords in Leigh Park

Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.

Materials we deal with

Water tanks and flues

Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.

Asbestos cement

Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.

Doing it yourself?

A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

What’s included, and what is not

Worth knowing before booking:

  • Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
  • Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
  • We do not remove anything until it’s been identified

If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.

Common materials

  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Artex and textured coatings
  • Water tanks
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Panels and boards
  • Soffits (cement)
  • Bitumen roof felt
  • Asbestos cement sheets
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
