Asbestos removal near Newington

Licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, which must be carried out by a contractor holding an HSE licence. We’ll explain what applies to your job in Newington. Typical materials include cement roof sheets, floor tiles and flue pipes, and people usually contact us about garage roofs and whole garages and debris left from a previous job.

Materials we deal with

Insulating board and lagging

Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.

Asbestos cement

Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.

DIY and asbestos

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

Newington questions

How far is Newington from London?

Newington is about 34 miles from central London, well within our area.

Do you cover Newington and the area around Newington station?

Yes. Newington station is close to the centre of Newington, and we cover the whole area.

Can you help with a shop or office?

Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.

When can you start?

It depends on the job and our diary. We’ll give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.

Do you work in flats?

Yes, of course. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.

Can I stay at home during removal?

Outdoor work rarely affects you indoors. Indoor work areas are sealed off and kept clear while the work is done.

How do I get a quote?

Just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

Can asbestos go in my bin?

No: skips and household bins cannot take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.

What happens

Once we are done:

  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • File the consignment note
  • Tell us about any previous survey
  • Make sure pets and children are elsewhere

Avoid these

Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.

The cost depends on:

  • Travel and parking

What we deal with in Newington

Most removal happens because building work would disturb asbestos: anything the work would disturb should be dealt with first.

Common situations in older properties include:

  • Textured coatings
  • Garage roof sheets
  • Broken sheets in gardens
  • Loft water tanks

Older buildings in Newington, near Church of St Mary or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so materials are identified first.

Before you book anyone

  • What isn’t included
  • Which laboratory analyses samples
  • What you’ll receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
  • Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed

Read the checklist

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
