How asbestos removal works in Staplers

Higher-risk materials such as pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, and has to be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. We will tell you if your job in Staplers falls into that category. Typical jobs include asbestos garages and floor tiles before a new floor, including flue pipes, textured coatings and cement roof sheets.

Homes in Staplers with bigger gardens may have several outbuildings with cement roofs, which can often be dealt with together. Every job comes with paperwork, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

How we price asbestos removal

The biggest factors in the price are:

  • Material and condition
  • The quantity or area
  • Disposal costs
  • Travel and parking

What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.

What to photograph

For a quick quote, include:

  • Damaged areas
  • An idea of size
  • Where we could park
  • Labels, if any

You will get a written quote. Just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 with the details.

What we do and don’t cover

What’s in and what’s out:

  • Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is generally separate
  • Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
  • Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.

Materials we see

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

Doing it yourself?

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

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

Where asbestos turns up

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

People normally contact us about one of these:

  • Cement water tanks in lofts
  • Old waste on site
  • Finds during refurbishment
  • Cement flues and gutters

In a school like Barton Primary School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use.

What to look for in a quote

  • That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
  • Suitable insurance for the work
  • Where the waste goes, with paperwork
  • What category of work it is

What happens next

Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.

If asbestos stays in the building:

  • Book the replacement before removal
  • File the consignment note
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone

Don’ts

Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste.

Questions from Staplers

Could my house in Staplers contain asbestos?

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

Can I stay at home during removal?

For outdoor jobs, you can typically stay put. Indoor work areas are sealed off and kept clear while the work is done.

How do I get a quote?

Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. Then call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.

Do you test before removing asbestos in Staplers?

If it hasn’t been identified, yes. The right method depends on what the material is.

Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials need a licensed contractor.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.

My builder has found asbestos. What now?

Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.

Materials we deal with

Asbestos cement

Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.

Floor tiles

The adhesive underneath sometimes needs its own approach.
