Looking after things afterwards
Making good, such as a new roof or ceiling, is usually a separate job, so plan it before the removal date.
Keeping things safe:
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
Avoid these
Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
Do not let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.

Doing it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Responsibilities for owners
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
How we work
We unfix materials and take them out in whole pieces where we can, never broken up, dropped or cut with power tools. When we’re done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows. We plan outdoor jobs in Popeswood to finish before dark: that means by about 3:55pm in December, or about 9:25pm in June.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Popeswood
Do you work near Bracknell station?
Yes, we cover Popeswood and the area towards Bracknell station, about 1.5 miles east.
Is asbestos common in Popeswood homes?
If your home in Popeswood was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
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.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not necessarily. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
