Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Northbrook must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

How asbestos removal works in Northbrook

Licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, and has to be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. We’ll tell you if your job in Northbrook falls into that category.

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: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Prices and what affects them

Our quotes take into account:

  • Location, parking and any London charges
  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space
  • How much there is
  • The category of work

Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Northbrook

Do you come out to small villages like Northbrook?

We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.

Do you cover Northbrook from London?

Northbrook is about 56 miles from central London, well within our area.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we will arrange a visit.

Does weather affect the work?

That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.

Can you help with a flat?

Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.

What if asbestos is found during building work?

The builder should stop and close off the area. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.

Step by step

Unexpected materials mean we pause and discuss, rather than carrying on regardless. While we work, the area stays out of bounds, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. Outdoor removal in Northbrook is planned to finish in daylight: that means by about 4:00pm in December, or about 9:25pm in June.

  1. Describe the material and send pictures
  2. We test it if needed and plan the job
  3. You get a written quote, including waste disposal

  5. The area is cleaned and you get the consignment note

Before we arrive

Where asbestos turns up

Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so buildings across Hampshire built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.

These are the materials and situations that most often lead to removal jobs:

  • Materials found mid-project
  • Asbestos garages
  • Textured coatings
  • Loft water tanks

For non-domestic buildings like Micheldever CofE Primary School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.

What your quote should include

  • Which areas and materials are covered
  • What category of work it is
  • Any exclusions
  • Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
