Asbestos removal in Norton Ash

How asbestos removal works in Norton Ash

You do not always have to remove asbestos. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we’ll say so. Common materials are gutters and downpipes, water tanks and cement soffits, and people usually contact us about finds during refurbishment and floor tiles before a new floor.

In a village like Norton Ash, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. Paperwork is part of every job, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

Should you do it yourself?

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.

Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

How we price asbestos removal

What changes the cost:

  • Material and condition
  • Location, parking and any London charges
  • The number of samples or the size of the building
  • How much waste there is

Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, such as testing several materials at once.

Photos that help

Before you send photos, a few tips:

  • Where we could park
  • The access route
  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it
  • A rough size or measurement

Each job is priced individually. Use our quote form or call 07833 053 749 to get started.

Licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed? It depends on what the material is and what’s being done. Our guide explains the difference, with links to HSE’s pages. Our quotes are clear about VAT.

Norton Ash questions

Do you cover small places like Norton Ash?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.

Do you cover Norton Ash from London?

We cover Norton Ash, about 42 miles from central London.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.

Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials need a licensed contractor.

Can you help with a shop or office?

Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.

What if asbestos is found during building work?

Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.

What does licensed work mean?

Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings generally are not licensed.

Can I put asbestos in a skip?

No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.

Typical removal jobs in Norton Ash

Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: anything the work would disturb should be dealt with first.

People normally contact us about one of these:

  • Old floor tiles and black adhesive
  • Asbestos found during building work
  • Old waste on site
  • Asbestos garages

For rentals close to Teynham station, removal fits neatly between tenancies.

Looking after things afterwards

After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.

If asbestos stays in the building:

  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
  • Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
  • Tell us about any previous survey

What to avoid

Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.

Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.

Responsibilities for owners

Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.

Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
