FAQs for Sinkhurst Green

Do you work near Headcorn station?

Yes. Headcorn station is about 2 miles north-east of Sinkhurst Green, and we cover both.

Is asbestos common in Sinkhurst Green homes?

If your home in Sinkhurst Green was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Does someone need to be there?

We need access to every area involved in the job.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.

What if my house is newer?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.

When can you start?

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

Can I remove asbestos myself?

HSE advises against removing asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials need a licensed contractor.

What it might be made of

Asbestos cement

Cement products make up most removal jobs: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.

Insulating board and lagging

Insulating board, lagging and sprayed coatings are licensed work in most cases.

Afterwards

Unexpected finds are discussed with you before we carry on, because the plan may need to change.

Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:

  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Tell us about any previous survey

Things not to do

Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.

Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Can I do it myself?

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

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
