Asbestos removal for Maybush

How asbestos removal works in Maybush

Once the material is out, we clean up and bag or wrap the waste, and you get the waste paperwork. Whether it’s debris left from a previous job and materials found mid-project, we deal with cement soffits, floor tiles and gutters and downpipes and more.

Homes in Maybush with bigger gardens may have several outbuildings with cement roofs, which can often be dealt with together. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

What we deal with in Maybush

Materials deteriorate with age: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is when removal comes up.

People generally contact us about one of these:

  • Cement flues and gutters
  • Textured coatings
  • Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
  • Garage roof sheets

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

What your quote should include

  • How the work will be done, and the controls used
  • What paperwork you get
  • Suitable insurance for the work
  • The scope of the job, in writing

Choosing an asbestos contractor

Doing it yourself?

If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

How we price asbestos removal

What drives the price:

  • How much there is
  • Disposal costs
  • The survey scope
  • Material and condition

Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.

What to photograph

To help us quote quickly, send:

  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • A rough size or measurement
  • Labels, if any
  • The parking area

Each job is priced individually. To start, ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.

Maybush questions

Do you work on properties in the New Forest National Park?

Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

Do you cover Maybush and the area around Redbridge station?

Yes. Redbridge station is about 1.2 miles south-west of Maybush, and we cover both.

What if the weather’s bad?

It depends on the job: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.

Does someone need to be there?

We need access to every area in the job.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.

How do I get a quote?

Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. To do that, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.

Do you cover Maybush?

Yes. We cover Maybush and the surrounding area as part of Southampton. Tell us the postcode and what you need.

How it works

As each piece comes out, it’s bagged or wrapped and labelled, then loaded for disposal at a permitted site. If anything unexpected turns up, we stop and talk to you. We plan outdoor jobs in Maybush to finish before dark: that means by about 4:00pm in December, or about 9:25pm in June.

  1. Tell us what needs removing and send photos
  2. We test the material if needed
  3. We plan the job and send a written quote
  4. On the day we set up, keep the material damp and remove it whole where we can
  5. We clean up, dispose of the waste legally and send the consignment note

Getting ready

Materials, one by one

Textured coatings

Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.

Water tanks and flues

Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.

What happens next

If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, so future trades know about it.

Staying safe afterwards:

  • Photos of the material and the route in help
  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Let neighbours know if work is near them

Things not to do

Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris.

Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.

Which option is right?

Sealing or enclosing is sometimes possible, but it remains in place and has to be recorded. Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, such as testing several materials at once.

Why people choose us

  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing
  • Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
  • Samples analysed by an accredited laboratory
  • Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations

Landlords, managing agents and employers

If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Maybush, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
