What’s included, and what isn’t
Some limits to bear in mind:
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

For managing agents and freeholders in Mott's Mill, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.
Materials we deal with

Cement products make up most removal jobs: roofs, gutters, flues and tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.
Floor tiles
Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with sanders or grinders.
