Common questions in Nag's Head

Do you work near Drayton Park station?

Yes. Drayton Park station is about 0.6 miles south-east of Nag's Head, and we cover both.

Can you work in Nag's Head with London’s parking rules?

Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it.

Do you test before removing asbestos in Nag's Head?

If it hasn’t been identified, yes. The removal method depends on the material.

Should all asbestos be removed?

Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.

How do I get a quote?

Does someone need to be there?

We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.

Can I remove asbestos myself?

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

How dangerous is asbestos?

Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, so identifying it before work is important.

How asbestos removal works in Nag's Head

Every removal job in Nag's Head is planned first: the method, the controls, the waste and any notification needed. From debris left from a previous job and textured coatings, we deal with cement roof sheets, cement soffits and floor tiles and more.

In Nag's Head, removal often involves flats, small gardens and limited access, so access and parking are planned carefully. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so there are no surprises.

DIY and asbestos

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

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

What happens

Materials are released carefully and removed whole where possible, never broken up, dropped or cut with power tools. We arrive at the agreed time, check the area and explain what we will do before we start. In winter, the light goes in Nag's Head by about 3:55pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

  1. Get in touch with the details of the job
  2. We work out what category the work falls into
  3. We agree a date and any notification needed
  4. On the day we set up, remove and bag the material
  5. The waste goes to a permitted site with a consignment note

Preparing for the visit

  • Find any old asbestos reports
  • Clear belongings, but leave the material alone
  • Let us know where we can park

Each job is priced individually. Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 to get started.

Prices and what affects them

We base our quote on:

  • The size of the job
  • Disposal costs
  • What the material is and its state
  • Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed

A price that looks too good to be true often is: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

What to photograph

A few photos can save a site visit:

  • Visible markings
  • The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
  • A clear close-up
  • Cracks or breaks

Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: do not touch the material, just send them through our quote form.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

If you run a business from older premises in Nag's Head, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.

Limits to be aware of

The usual limits are:

  • Making good is normally a separate job
  • Some jobs must be notified first, which affects the start date
  • Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor

If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.

Common materials

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

Service details

Looking after things afterwards

If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, because the plan may need to change.

Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:

  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Let neighbours know if work is near them

Things not to do

Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
