How asbestos removal works in Peters Village

Asbestos materials are kept wet, taken out whole where we can, and never cut with power tools, to keep fibre release as low as possible. Typical jobs include cement water tanks in lofts and old waste on site, involving water tanks, flue pipes and cement roof sheets.

Homes in Peters Village with bigger gardens may have several outbuildings with cement roofs, which can often be dealt with together. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

For businesses and landlords in Peters Village

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

If you manage or own a block in Peters Village, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.

Doing it yourself?

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

Typical removal jobs in Peters Village

Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, which is why that work is licensed.

Typical jobs in Peters Village include:

  • Old sheds and coal bunkers
  • Old cold water tanks
  • Cement flues and gutters
  • Asbestos garages

In older properties in Peters Village, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we identify materials before planning removal.

Choosing an asbestos contractor

Which option is right?

Very cheap quotes can be a warning sign: controls, equipment and legal disposal all cost money. Ask to see the waste paperwork. Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

What it might be made of

Textured coatings

Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.

Water tanks and flues

Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.

What’s included, and what isn’t

A few things to be aware of:

  • Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
  • Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
  • Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling

If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

Common materials

  • Flue pipes
  • Panels and boards
  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Bitumen roof felt
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Soffits (cement)
  • Water tanks
  • Artex and textured coatings
  • Asbestos cement sheets
  • Gutters and downpipes

Can asbestos be left in place?

Often it can stay: if it’s in good condition and out of the way, it can stay. Record it and keep an eye on it.

Do you work on commercial premises?

Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.

Is asbestos removal licensed?

Not always. Cement and textured coatings are typically non-licensed; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.

What if my house is newer?

Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.

Is asbestos dangerous?

Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
