DIY and asbestos

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

A closer look at the materials

Floor tiles

Black bitumen adhesive may need treating separately.

Textured coatings

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

FAQs for Middle Aston

Do older homes in Middle Aston have asbestos?

That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Middle Aston may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you cover small places like Middle Aston?

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.

Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?

HSE advises against removing asbestos yourself. Licensed materials must only be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor.

Is asbestos removal licensed?

Sometimes: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings typically aren’t licensed.

Do you test before removing asbestos in Middle Aston?

Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The removal method depends on the material.

Which asbestos work needs a licence?

Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
