Asbestos removal near Lurgashall

Much of the asbestos found in homes is asbestos cement, textured coating or floor tiles. Work on these is generally non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls. Typical jobs include asbestos garages and cement flues and gutters, including flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and floor tiles.

In Lurgashall, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so the route is planned in advance. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Lurgashall: your questions answered

Could my house in Lurgashall contain asbestos?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you cover Lurgashall and the area around Haslemere station?

Yes. Haslemere station is about 4.5 miles north-west of Lurgashall, and we cover both.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.

Can I stay at home during removal?

For outdoor jobs, you can usually stay put. Indoor work areas are sealed off and kept clear while the work is done.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Many jobs can be quoted from photos, though some need a visit first.

Do you work on commercial premises?

Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.

How quickly can you come out?

That depends on the work and current bookings. We’ll give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.

  • We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified

What it might be made of

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement is the most common material we remove: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. It’s kept damp and removed whole where possible.

Insulating board and lagging

Insulating board, lagging and sprayed coatings are licensed work in most cases.

DIY and asbestos

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

For landlords, agents and businesses

For managing agents and freeholders in Lurgashall, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.

The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Typical removal jobs in Lurgashall

Old materials break down over time: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is when removal comes up.

In older properties, we often see:

  • Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
  • Old waste on site
  • Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
  • Asbestos garages

If you let property near Haslemere station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
  • Which areas and materials are covered
  • The method and controls
  • Where the waste goes, with paperwork

Read the checklist

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
