Materials, one by one

Insulating board and lagging

It needs an HSE-licensed contractor and 14 days’ notice.

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.

What’s included, and what is not

Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:

  • Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
  • Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
  • Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is generally separate
