Loudwater: your questions answered
Do older homes in Loudwater have asbestos?
If your home in Loudwater was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work on properties in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t 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?
It depends on the job: outdoor jobs don’t normally affect you. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we have finished.
How much does asbestos removal cost in Loudwater?
Every job is priced individually: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
Sometimes: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings typically are not licensed.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
