Asbestos removal in Shutford

About our asbestos removal in Shutford

Removal is planned, not improvised: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified. From cement flues and gutters and garage roofs and whole garages, we deal with flue pipes, water tanks and gutters and downpipes.

In Shutford, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. Every job comes with paperwork, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Shutford

Do you cover Shutford and the area around Banbury station?

Yes, we cover Shutford and the area towards Banbury station, about 4.7 miles east.

How far is Shutford from London?

We cover Shutford, about 69 miles from central London.

Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials must only be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor.

What if the weather’s bad?

That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.

How quickly can you come out?

We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.

Do you work on commercial premises?

Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.

Could my home contain asbestos?

You can’t tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.

Why people call us in Shutford

Some owners remove visible asbestos before a sale or letting, although sound material can often stay.

These are some of the things we deal with in Shutford:

  • Artex ceilings before renovation
  • Finds during refurbishment
  • Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
  • Debris left from a previous job

In older properties in Shutford, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we identify materials before planning removal.

What it might be made of

Asbestos cement

Cement products make up most removal jobs: roofs, gutters, flues and tanks. It’s kept damp and removed whole where possible.

Floor tiles

Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with sanders or grinders.

Should you do it yourself?

If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.

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

Options to consider in Shutford

Dealing with asbestos before work starts keeps the project on track, rather than halting work when it’s found. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

Why choose us

  • Legal disposal, with paperwork
  • Across London and the South East
  • Reports and results you can share
  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory

If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Shutford, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
