Should you do it yourself?

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
What happens next
Any asbestos left elsewhere should stay on record, for anyone working there later.
To avoid problems in future:

Avoid these
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.

Nalderswood: your questions answered
Do you cover Nalderswood from London?
We cover Nalderswood, about 22 miles from central London.
Is asbestos common in Nalderswood homes?
If your home in Nalderswood was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings usually are not licensed.

It depends on the job: outdoor work rarely means leaving. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then get advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
