- Making good is normally a separate job
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
