Asbestos removal for Saunderton Lee

Saunderton Lee questions

Do you work on properties in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

How far is Saunderton Lee from London?

We cover Saunderton Lee, about 34 miles from central London.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.

How can I get a price?

Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. To do that, use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.

Do you test before removing asbestos in Saunderton Lee?

Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The removal method depends on the material.

Can you quote from photos?

Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.

Do I need to move out?

For outdoor jobs, you can normally stay put. Indoor work areas are sealed off and kept clear while the work is done.

How asbestos removal works in Saunderton Lee

If your builder has found suspect material in Saunderton Lee, work should stop there and people kept out. We can test it and, if needed, plan its removal. Whether it’s garage roof sheets and sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos, we cover gutters and downpipes, textured coatings and flue pipes and more.

In Saunderton Lee, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so the route is planned in advance. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

How we work

On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, and keep the material wet as we work. Before we start, we walk through the job with you and answer any questions. Late-December sunset in Saunderton Lee is about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.

  1. Send us the postcode and photos
  2. We work out what category the work falls into
  3. We book the work and notify if required
  4. On the day we set up, remove and bag the material
  5. The waste goes to a permitted site with a consignment note

Before we arrive

  • Dig out previous surveys
  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property

Getting a price

Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: do not touch the material, just send them through our quote form.

Choosing the right option

Should it come out? 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. Our quotes are clear about VAT, so you can compare like with like.

Materials we deal with

Asbestos cement

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

Textured coatings

Textured coatings are removed with wet or gel methods, never dry-scraped or sanded. Larger-scale steam or gel removal is notifiable non-licensed work.

What it costs

These are the main things that affect the price of asbestos removal:

  • Parking and access charges
  • What the material is and its state
  • The number of samples or the size of the building
  • How much there is

How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

Helping us quote

Photo tips:

  • Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
  • Street parking nearby
  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it

Photos and a postcode help us quote quickly: just use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.

Looking after things afterwards

File the waste paperwork safely: it proves legal disposal.

Some practical advice:

  • Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
  • Book the replacement before removal
  • Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
  • Keep children and pets away on the day

Don’ts

Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

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

Duty holders and landlords in Saunderton Lee

Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.

Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.

What’s included, and what is not

It’s worth knowing what asbestos removal does and doesn’t cover:

  • We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified
  • Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is normally separate
  • Some jobs must be notified first, so the timing needs planning

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.

What we deal with

  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Panels and boards
  • Soffits (cement)
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Water tanks
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Artex and textured coatings
  • Flue pipes
  • Bitumen roof felt
  • Asbestos cement sheets

Common reasons for removal jobs in Saunderton Lee

Not all asbestos materials are equal: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, which is why that work is licensed.

In older properties, we often see:

  • Old sheds and coal bunkers
  • Loft water tanks
  • Artex before plastering
  • Cement flues and gutters

If you let property near Saunderton station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.
