How asbestos removal works in Nuneham Courtenay
If your builder has found suspect material in Nuneham Courtenay, stop work in that area and keep people away. We can test it and, if needed, plan its removal. Typical jobs include debris left from a previous job and garage roof sheets, involving floor tiles, textured coatings and gutters and downpipes.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Nuneham Courtenay
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so pre-2000 buildings across Oxfordshire may contain it.
These are some of the things we deal with in Nuneham Courtenay:
- Old flues
- Artex before plastering
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Broken sheets in gardens
In older buildings across Nuneham Courtenay, asbestos may be in later additions, so materials are identified first.
Questions to ask before you book

What we do and do not cover
Some limits to bear in mind:

- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Nuneham Courtenay questions
Do you cover Nuneham Courtenay and the area around Radley station?
Yes. Radley station is about 1.7 miles west of Nuneham Courtenay, and we cover both.
Do older homes in Nuneham Courtenay have asbestos?
If your home in Nuneham Courtenay was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
Sometimes: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings typically aren’t licensed.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
What does licensed work mean?
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. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, though some need a visit first.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Step by step
We start by setting up and segregating the work area, and keep the material wet as we work. We keep the work area clear of other people while we work, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere. In winter, the light goes in Nuneham Courtenay by about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.

Helpful guides
Materials we deal with
Textured coatings
We soften coatings and remove them wet, never sanding or dry scraping. Larger-scale steam or gel removal is notifiable non-licensed work.
Insulating board and lagging
That work must be done by a contractor holding an HSE licence, with notification 14 days ahead.
What happens next
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you get the consignment note showing where the waste went.
After we’ve finished:
- Book the replacement before removal
- Share any survey or test results
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- File the consignment note
Avoid these
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris.
Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Your options compared
Be wary of a price that seems too low: proper controls, protective equipment, a registered waste carrier and disposal cost money. Always ask for the consignment note. Our quotes are clear about VAT, so you can compare like with like.
