About our asbestos removal in Sulham

We remove asbestos from homes, rented property and commercial buildings across Sulham: cement sheets and roofs, flues, tanks, gutters, textured coatings and floor tiles. Every job is planned to HSE guidance, with the waste taken to a permitted site. Whether it’s materials found mid-project and flue pipes, gutters and downpipes, we deal with flue pipes, cement roof sheets and cement soffits.

In a village like Sulham, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

For landlords, agents and businesses

If you run a business from older premises in Sulham, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

FAQs for Sulham

Do you cover small places like Sulham?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.

Do you work on properties in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?

Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.

Do I need to move out?

That depends: outdoor work rarely means leaving. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.

Can you help with a shop or office?

We do. Send us the details of the premises.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

How much does asbestos removal cost in Sulham?

Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. We quote each job individually.

How dangerous is asbestos?

It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.

A closer look at the materials

Floor tiles

Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with power tools.

Asbestos cement

Cement products make up most removal jobs: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. It’s kept damp and removed whole where possible.

  1. Tell us what needs removing and send photos
  2. If it hasn’t been identified, we sample it first
  3. We plan the method, controls, waste and any notification, and send a quote
  4. We remove the material with controls to keep fibres down
  5. The area is cleaned and the waste goes to a permitted site, with paperwork

How to prepare

  • Make sure we can get to the area
  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
  • Keep the area clear of children and pets

Helpful guides

After we’ve finished in Sulham

Making good, such as a new roof or ceiling, is normally a separate job, so plan it before the removal date.

Looking after any asbestos that remains:

  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Photos of the material and the route in help

Things not to do

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

Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

Options to consider in Sulham

Be wary of a price that seems too low: controls, equipment and legal disposal all cost money. Always ask for the consignment note. Dealing with asbestos before building work is usually cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
