Asbestos removal for Shabbington properties

Higher-risk materials such as pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, and has to be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. We will tell you if your job in Shabbington falls into that category. Typical materials include cement roof sheets, textured coatings and gutters and downpipes, and people usually contact us about old waste on site and garage roof sheets.

In a village like Shabbington, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

What affects the price in Shabbington

Prices vary with:

  • The size of the job
  • Licensed or non-licensed

  • What the material is and its state

What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.

Materials, one by one

Floor tiles

The adhesive underneath sometimes needs its own approach.

Bitumen and felt

They’re removed by hand.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Shabbington, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.

Shabbington: your questions answered

Do you cover Shabbington and the area around Haddenham & Thame Parkway station?

Yes. Haddenham & Thame Parkway station is about 4.1 miles east of Shabbington, and we cover both.

Do you come out to small villages like Shabbington?

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

Which asbestos work needs a licence?

It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.

Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?

If it hasn’t been identified, yes. The removal method depends on the material.

Will I get the price in writing?

Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.

How quickly can you come out?

That depends on the work and current bookings. You’ll get available dates with the quote.

What happens to the waste?

It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.

Should all asbestos be removed?

Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.

Doing it yourself?

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
