  • Approximate dimensions
  • Where we could park
  • Labels, if any

Asbestos removal near Stone

You do not always have to remove asbestos. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we will tell you honestly when that is the case. Common materials are flue pipes, floor tiles and cement soffits, and typical jobs are floor tiles before a new floor and garage roofs and whole garages.

Rural removal near Stone can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

After the job

File the waste paperwork safely: it proves legal disposal.

To avoid problems in future:

  • Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Keep children and pets away on the day

Things not to do

Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.

Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

If your business premises in Stone were built before 2000, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.

Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.

What we do and don’t cover

Some limits to bear in mind:

  • Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
  • Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
  • We do not remove anything until it’s been identified

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we deal with

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

Common questions in Stone

Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

Do you cover small places like Stone?

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.

Can you help with a flat?

Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.

Can you help with a shop or office?

We do. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.

Does someone need to be there?

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

How dangerous is asbestos?

Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.

Do I need a test or a survey?

Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice.

Doing it yourself?

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.

A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Which option is right?

DIY removal might look cheaper, but HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and disposal still has to be done properly. Dealing with asbestos before building work is generally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.

Why us?

  • Accredited laboratory results
  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing
  • Records for your files
  • Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it

Where asbestos turns up

Sometimes damage forces the issue, especially if broken material is lying around.

Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:

  • Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
  • Textured coatings
  • Old sheds and coal bunkers
  • Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes

In a school like Stone Church of England Combined School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use.
