Asbestos removal in Redford

Much of the asbestos found in homes is asbestos cement, textured coating or floor tiles. Work on these is generally non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls. From flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and finds during refurbishment, we cover floor tiles, textured coatings and flue pipes.

Rural removal near Redford can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Should you do it yourself?

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

How we price asbestos removal

What changes the cost:

  • Disposal costs
  • Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
  • What the material is and its state
  • The number of samples or the size of the building

How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.

What to photograph

Before you send photos, a few tips:

  • How we’d reach it
  • Where we could park
  • A close-up from a safe distance
  • An idea of size

Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: send them through our contact page.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Redford

Old materials break down over time: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is when removal comes up.

In older properties, we often see:

  • Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
  • Debris left from a previous job
  • Loft water tanks
  • Old flues

In older buildings across Redford, asbestos may be in later additions, so we identify materials before planning removal.

How to choose an asbestos contractor

Materials we deal with

Floor tiles

The adhesive underneath sometimes needs its own approach.

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.

After the job

If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.

Looking after any asbestos that remains:

  • Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
  • Share any survey or test results
  • Let us know where we can park

What to avoid

Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of.

Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.

Questions from Redford

Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the South Downs National Park?

Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

Could my house in Redford contain asbestos?

It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Redford can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Should all asbestos be removed?

No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.

Can I put asbestos in a skip?

No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.

Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?

Unless it’s already been identified, yes: the way it’s removed depends on the material.

How do I get a quote?

Use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.

How do I know if my property contains asbestos?

If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.

Can I stay at home during removal?

For outdoor jobs, you can normally stay put. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.

Choosing the right option

Licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed? It depends on what the material is and what’s being done. See our guide to the three categories. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.
