How asbestos removal works in Old Netley

Removal is planned, not improvised: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified. Typical materials include gutters and downpipes, textured coatings and cement roof sheets, and people normally contact us about old sheds and coal bunkers and asbestos found during building work.

In a village like Old Netley, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

What affects the price in Old Netley

The biggest factors in the price are:

  • The category of work
  • Travel and parking
  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space
  • How much waste there is

What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.

What to photograph

What to photograph:

  • Cracks or breaks
  • An overall view
  • A clear close-up
  • The parking area

Tell us about the material, its location and your plans. Then ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.

After we’ve finished in Old Netley

Any asbestos left elsewhere should stay on record, so future trades know about it.

After we’ve finished:

  • Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Send photos of the material and the access
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos

Don’ts

Don’t jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Old Netley

Materials deteriorate with age: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is often when people decide to remove them.

Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:

  • Debris left from a previous job
  • Cement flues and gutters
  • Artex ceilings before renovation
  • Asbestos found during building work

Older buildings in Old Netley, near St Paul’s Church or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal.

Comparing quotes

  • If the price includes VAT
  • That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
  • Where the waste goes, with paperwork

For landlords, agents and businesses

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

For managing agents and freeholders in Old Netley, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.

Good to know

Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:

  • Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
  • Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is usually separate
  • Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor

Should you do it yourself?

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

The process

At the end, the work area is cleaned with suitable methods and checked, and we talk you through what was done. On the day, we check the area and talk you through the plan first. We plan outdoor jobs in Old Netley to finish before dark: that means by about 4:00pm in December, or about 9:25pm in June.

  1. Describe the material and send pictures
  2. We test the material if needed
  3. We plan the job and send a written quote
  4. On the day we set up, keep the material damp and remove it whole where we can
  5. The area is cleaned and the waste goes to a permitted site, with paperwork

How to prepare

  • Let neighbours know if the work is near them
  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
  • Clear access to the area, loft or garage

Why choose us

  • Written quotes that say what’s included
  • Across London and the South East
  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing
  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory

Common questions in Old Netley

Do you come out to small villages like Old Netley?

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

Could my house in Old Netley contain asbestos?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Where does the asbestos go?

It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.

Do I need a test or a survey?

A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.

How do I get a quote?

Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. To do that, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.

Do I need to move out?

It depends on the job: outdoor work rarely means leaving. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we’ve finished.

Do you test before removing asbestos in Old Netley?

If it hasn’t been identified, yes. The removal method depends on the material.

How dangerous is asbestos?

It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.

  • 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
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
