After the job

A few practical points:
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Share any survey or test results
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
Things not to do
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

FAQs for Potter's Green
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Do you come out to small villages like Potter's Green?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
What does licensed work mean?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
How do I get a quote?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is. Then fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: you get the scope and price in writing.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Weighing up your options
Removing asbestos before building work avoids stopping the job halfway, rather than halting work when it’s found. Dealing with asbestos before building work is generally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
