Asbestos removal in Marden Beech

How asbestos removal works in Marden Beech

Once the material is out, we clean up and bag or wrap the waste, and you get the waste paperwork. From old sheds and coal bunkers and asbestos garages, we cover textured coatings, cement soffits and flue pipes.

Rural removal near Marden Beech can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. Clear answers come first: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

What it might be made of

Bitumen and felt

Some old roof felts and bitumen products contain asbestos, usually tightly bound.

Floor tiles

Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with power tools.

What happens next

File the waste paperwork safely: it shows the asbestos was disposed of legally.

Once we are done:

  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Book the replacement before removal
  • Send photos of the material and the access
  • Let us know where we can park

Avoid these

Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Marden Beech

Is asbestos common in Marden Beech homes?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

How far is Marden Beech from London?

Marden Beech is about 34 miles from central London, well within our area.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.

How do I get a quote?

Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is. To do that, use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.

My builder has found asbestos. What now?

Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.

Will I get the price in writing?

Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.

Can I remove asbestos myself?

HSE’s advice is not to do it yourself, and higher-risk materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

How we price asbestos removal

We base our quote on:

  • How many samples are needed
  • Licensed or non-licensed
  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space
  • The quantity or area

Sometimes a test shows removal isn’t needed, because the material is clear.

What to photograph

The most useful photos are:

  • Street parking nearby
  • Cracks or breaks
  • An idea of size
  • A wide shot showing where the material is

Include any existing survey or test when you send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749; it helps us quote accurately.

What we do and don’t cover

Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:

  • We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified
  • Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is typically separate
  • 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 before you book.

Materials we see

  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Panels and boards
  • Flue pipes
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Bitumen roof felt
  • Soffits (cement)
  • Asbestos cement sheets
  • Water tanks
  • Artex and textured coatings

The process

On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, and keep the material wet as we work. Parking close by makes the day easier. Outdoor removal in Marden Beech is planned to finish in daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:15pm.

  1. Get in touch with the details of the job
  2. We work out what category the work falls into
  3. We book the work and notify if required
  4. On the day we set up, remove and bag the material
  5. We dispose of the waste legally and send the paperwork

Getting ready

  • Do not disturb the material before we get there
  • Mention any parking restrictions
  • Clear belongings, but leave the material alone

How to get a quote

We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. To start, use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.

Why people call us in Marden Beech

Materials deteriorate with age: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is when removal comes up.

If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:

  • Cement flues and gutters
  • Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
  • Debris left from a previous job
  • Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles

At a school such as Marden Primary School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.

Questions to ask before booking

  • That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
  • The documents you’ll receive
  • What isn’t included
  • How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you will get a consignment note

How to choose an asbestos contractor

For businesses and landlords in Marden Beech

Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.

Which option is right?

Covering or sealing asbestos is sometimes an alternative to removal, but it remains in place and has to be recorded. Doing several things in one visit can help, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.

Why us?

  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
  • Across London and the South East
  • Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
  • No removal until we know what it is

Take a look at how we quote or the cost guide.

  • 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
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
