How asbestos removal works in Minster Lovell
In homes, in Minster Lovell as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. Work on these is typically non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls. Whether it’s vinyl and thermoplastic tiles and Artex before plastering, we deal with textured coatings, water tanks and cement soffits and more.

Materials, one by one
Floor tiles
Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with sanders or grinders.
Bitumen and felt
Bitumen felts can contain asbestos, which is normally well bound.
Typical removal jobs in Minster Lovell
Materials deteriorate with age: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is often when people decide to remove them.
You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Old cold water tanks
- Cement flues and gutters
- Materials found mid-project
- Debris left from a previous job
In a school like St Kenelm's Church of England (VC) School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use.

Weighing up your options
Be wary of a price that seems too low: proper controls, protective equipment, a registered waste carrier and disposal cost money. Ask to see the waste paperwork. Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
