Asbestos removal for Old Wolverton
About our asbestos removal in Old Wolverton
Before removal, the material has to be identified. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. People often contact us about loft water tanks and old floor tiles and black adhesive, involving cement soffits, water tanks and gutters and downpipes.
In places like Old Wolverton, we often remove garage roofs and old sheds, reached through gardens and drives. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, for your records.

What we deal with in Old Wolverton
Old materials break down over time: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is when removal comes up.
People generally contact us about one of these:
- Asbestos found during building work
- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles

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

Doing it yourself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
FAQs for Old Wolverton
Is asbestos common in Old Wolverton homes?
Any home in Old Wolverton built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover Old Wolverton and the area around Wolverton station?
Yes. Wolverton station is about 0.9 miles east of Old Wolverton, and we cover both.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
Sometimes: lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, while most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.

Yes. We cover Old Wolverton and the surrounding area as part of Milton Keynes. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE advises the public not to try, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.
Options to consider in Old Wolverton
Should it come out? If the material is in good condition and won’t be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is usually right. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.
