Can I do it myself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Could my house in Springhead contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.

It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.

Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. To do that, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional.
