About our asbestos removal in Privett
Removal is planned, not improvised: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified, before anyone starts. Whether it’s garage roof sheets and Artex before plastering, we cover gutters and downpipes, flue pipes and cement roof sheets and more.
In a smaller place like Privett, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, with access through the garden or drive. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so you know where you stand.

Afterwards
If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Photos of the material and the route in help
Don’ts
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.
Privett questions
How far is Privett from London?
We cover Privett, about 67 miles from central London.
Do older homes in Privett have asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Where does the asbestos go?
It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note as your record.
Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?
HSE advises the public not to try, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The removal method depends on the material.
When can you start?
It depends on the job and our diary. You’ll get available dates with the quote.
Do I need to move out?
For outdoor jobs, you can typically stay put. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.
What it might be made of
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.
Bitumen and felt
We remove them without cutting with power tools.
Typical removal jobs in Privett
Most removal happens because building work would disturb asbestos: whatever the work will touch should come out first.
These come up again and again:
- Old flues
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Asbestos garages
At a school such as Gomer Infant School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.
