Asbestos removal for Shenley Church End properties

Can I do it myself?

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.

Good to know

Here’s what asbestos removal covers, and what it doesn’t:

  • Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
  • Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
  • Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is generally separate

If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.

What we deal with

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

Service details

Your options compared

What kind of work is it? The material and the job decide. See our guide to the three categories. Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, because the material is clear.

Why choose us

  • Identify first, remove only when needed
  • Waste paperwork for every removal
  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
  • Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations

Take a look at how we price jobs or our cost guide.

What it might be made of

Water tanks and flues

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

Asbestos cement

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

Responsibilities for owners

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

For managing agents and freeholders in Shenley Church End, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.

Why people call us in Shenley Church End

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

In older properties, we often see:

  • Asbestos garages
  • Textured coatings
  • Floor tiles before a new floor
  • Cement water tanks in lofts

For rentals close to Milton Keynes Central station, removal fits neatly between tenancies.

Helpful guides

Your questions about asbestos removal in Shenley Church End

Do you cover Shenley Church End from London?

Shenley Church End is about 47 miles from central London, well within our area.

Do older homes in Shenley Church End have asbestos?

That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Shenley Church End can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

How do I know if my property contains asbestos?

If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.

When can you start?

That depends on the work and current bookings. You will get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.

Can I stay at home during removal?

Outdoor work rarely affects you indoors. Indoor work areas are sealed off and kept clear while the work is done.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

Not necessarily. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.

Will I get the price in writing?

Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
