Asbestos removal for Shootash properties

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Prices and what affects them
When we quote, we look at:
- How much there is
- How easy it is to reach
- Licensed or non-licensed
- Waste quantity and disposal
Doing several things in one visit can help, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
Helping us quote

Don’ts

Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:
- Textured coatings

Your questions about asbestos removal in Shootash
Could my house in Shootash contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Shootash can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover small places like Shootash?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
How can I get a price?
Just use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.
When can you start?
That depends on the work and current bookings. We’ll give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
