What else we do in Pitchcott
What it might be made of
Floor tiles
Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with sanders or grinders.
Asbestos cement
Cement products make up most removal jobs: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.
What happens next
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
Some practical advice:
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Let us know where we can park
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- File the consignment note
What to avoid
Don’t put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
FAQs for Pitchcott
Do you cover Pitchcott from London?
Pitchcott is about 42 miles from central London, well within our area.
Is asbestos common in Pitchcott homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
Often it can stay: sound material that won’t be disturbed can be left and managed. Record it and keep an eye on it.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Where does the asbestos go?
It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you receive the consignment note.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.
Responsibilities for owners
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Step by step
We unfix materials and take them out in whole pieces where we can, never broken up, dropped or cut with power tools. Nobody else needs to be in the work area, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere. Late-December sunset in Pitchcott is about 3:55pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

DIY and asbestos
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
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.
Which option is right?
Remove, or leave and manage? Sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is generally right. Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
