FAQs for Long Hanborough
How far is Long Hanborough from London?
We cover Long Hanborough, about 60 miles from central London.
Could my house in Long Hanborough contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Long Hanborough can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
When can you start?
That depends on the work and current bookings. You will get available dates with the quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
How do I get a quote?
Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
