Questions from Rotherwick
Could my house in Rotherwick contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover Rotherwick from London?
Rotherwick is about 40 miles from central London, well within our area.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
Not always. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed work; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
In many cases it can stay: if it’s in good condition and out of the way, it can stay. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
What happens to the waste?
It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note as your record.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Do you work in Rotherwick?

How asbestos removal works in Rotherwick
Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. We often deal with gutters and downpipes, cement roof sheets and textured coatings, and typical jobs are asbestos garages and old cold water tanks.
In a village like Rotherwick, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Water tanks and flues
Tanks and flues are disconnected first, then removed with minimal breakage.
Doing it yourself?
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.

Weighing up your options
Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and will not be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
