Asbestos removal near Ropley Dean

Where asbestos turns up

Selling or letting a property can prompt removal of obvious materials, although sound material can often stay.

In older properties, we often see:

  • Cement water tanks in lofts
  • Old sheds and coal bunkers
  • Old waste on site
  • Textured coatings

In older properties in Ropley Dean, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we test before we plan.

What your quote should include

  • What paperwork you get
  • For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
  • Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
  • How the work will be done, and the controls used

Asbestos removal for Ropley Dean properties

Before removal, the material has to be identified. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, since the right method depends on what it is. We often deal with cement roof sheets, gutters and downpipes and flue pipes, and typical jobs are Artex ceilings before renovation and vinyl and thermoplastic tiles.

In a village like Ropley Dean, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

How it works

At the end, the work area is cleaned with suitable methods and checked. Nobody else needs to be in the work area, so please keep children and pets away. Late-December sunset in Ropley Dean is about 4:00pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

  1. Describe the material and send pictures
  2. If it hasn’t been identified, we sample it first
  3. We plan the job and send a written quote
  4. On the day we set up, keep the material damp and remove it whole where we can
  5. We clean up, dispose of the waste legally and send the consignment note

Preparing for the visit

  • Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
  • Have any previous surveys or test results ready
  • Clear the way to the work area

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.

If you run a business from older premises in Ropley Dean, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

DIY and asbestos

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.

Questions from Ropley Dean

Do you cover Ropley Dean from London?

Ropley Dean is about 52 miles from central London, well within our area.

Do you cover small places like Ropley Dean?

We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.

What does licensed work mean?

Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.

Does weather affect the work?

It depends on the job: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.

Where does the asbestos go?

It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note for your records.

Choosing the right option

DIY removal might look cheaper, but HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and the waste still has to go to a permitted site with the right paperwork. When comparing quotes, check what’s included: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.

Why choose us

  • Clear written quotes
  • Domestic and commercial work
  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing
  • Across London and the South East

Read our prices page and our cost guide.

Looking after things afterwards

If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.

Looking after any asbestos that remains:

  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Photos of the material and the route in help
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Let neighbours know if work is near them

Don’ts

Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
