New Street: your questions answered
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Do you cover small places like New Street?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is usually needed.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
How do I get a quote?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. To do that, use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Should you do it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
