Asbestos removal in Shanklin Village

Removal is planned, not improvised: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified. Whether it’s textured coatings and finds during refurbishment, we deal with floor tiles, gutters and downpipes and textured coatings and more.

In Shanklin Village, removal often involves flats, small gardens and limited access, so access and parking are planned carefully. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

What it costs

Quotes vary because of:

  • Material and condition
  • Parking and access charges
  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space
  • The number of samples or the size of the building

The cost of asbestos removal depends on the job: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.

Helping us quote

Before you send photos, a few tips:

  • Damaged areas
  • Street parking nearby
  • Approximate dimensions
  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it

Shanklin Village questions

Do you work near Belmont station?

Yes, we cover Shanklin Village, including the streets around Belmont station.

Do you work in Shanklin Village despite London parking restrictions?

We do. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it.

Is asbestos dangerous?

Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.

Can you help a business or landlord?

Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.

Is asbestos removal licensed?

It varies: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings normally are not licensed.

Where does the asbestos go?

We bag or wrap it, label it and take it to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you receive the consignment note.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.

How quickly can you come out?

We agree a date when you accept the quote. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.

Should you do it yourself?

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

Typical removal jobs in Shanklin Village

Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and insulating board release fibres much more easily than asbestos cement, so their removal is licensed.

These are some of the things we deal with in Shanklin Village:

  • Textured coatings
  • Debris left from a previous job
  • Finds during refurbishment
  • Old sheds and coal bunkers

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

Before you book anyone

  • The scope of the job, in writing
  • Any exclusions
  • Suitable insurance for the work
  • Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab

Choosing an asbestos contractor

Materials we deal with

Water tanks and flues

Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.

Asbestos cement

Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.

Duty holders and landlords in Shanklin Village

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Shanklin Village, 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.

Keeping things safe:

  • Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property

  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
