Doing it yourself?

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

What happens

Waste is double-bagged or wrapped in heavy polythene and labelled as we go, ready to go to a permitted site. We go over the plan with you first, so you know what’s happening. Outdoor removal in Statenborough is planned to finish in daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:15pm.

Statenborough: your questions answered

Do you cover small places like Statenborough?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.

Do you cover Statenborough from London?

Statenborough is about 63 miles from central London, well within our area.

What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?

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

Can asbestos go in my bin?

Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.

How do I know if my property contains asbestos?

You cannot tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.

Does someone need to be there?

Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.

What’s included, and what isn’t

So you know what to expect:

Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is generally separate
Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor

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

What we deal with

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

What we deal with in Statenborough

Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: anything the work would disturb should be dealt with first.

These are the materials and situations that most often lead to removal jobs:

Artex ceilings before renovation
Floor tiles before a new floor
Finds during refurbishment
Loft water tanks

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

Before booking anyone

The scope of the job, in writing
That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
The documents you’ll receive
