Asbestos removal for Sutton Wick

What we deal with in Sutton Wick

Old materials break down over time: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is often when people decide to remove them.

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

  • Cement flues and gutters
  • Floor tiles before a new floor
  • Materials found mid-project
  • Textured coatings

Landlords near Appleford station often time removal for when a property is empty.

Questions to ask before booking

  • For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
  • Whether the job needs notifying

  • That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory

How to choose an asbestos contractor

Asbestos removal for Sutton Wick properties

We remove asbestos from homes, rented property and commercial buildings across Sutton Wick: cement sheets and roofs, flues, tanks, gutters, textured coatings and floor tiles. Each job follows HSE guidance, and the waste goes to a permitted site. From textured coatings and broken sheets in gardens, we deal with gutters and downpipes, floor tiles and flue pipes.

Rural removal near Sutton Wick can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

How we price asbestos removal

Prices vary with:

  • How easy it is to reach
  • Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
  • Travel and parking
  • The size of the job

How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.

Helping us quote

What to photograph:

  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • Street parking nearby
  • Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
  • Approximate dimensions

We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page to get started.

The process

On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, and keep the material wet as we work. Before we leave, we explain what we did and what comes next. Late-December sunset in Sutton Wick is about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.

  1. Start with photos, the postcode and any existing reports
  2. We identify the material and work out whether the job is licensed, notifiable or non-licensed
  3. A written quote follows, covering method, controls and disposal
  4. We set up, keep the material damp and take it out whole where we can
  5. Everything is cleaned up, and the waste paperwork follows

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Tell us about anything that is already damaged
  • Clear the way to the work area

Afterwards

If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, so future trades know about it.

A few practical points:

  • Tell us about any previous survey
  • Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • Send photos of the material and the access

Avoid these

Do not let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.

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

For landlords, agents and businesses

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

If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.

Questions from Sutton Wick

How far is Sutton Wick from London?

We cover Sutton Wick, about 53 miles from central London.

Do you cover small places like Sutton Wick?

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

What if my house is newer?

Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.

Will I get the price in writing?

Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.

Do I need to be at home?

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

When can you start?

Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.

Can I stay at home during removal?

That depends: outdoor work rarely means leaving. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we have finished.

What does licensed work mean?

Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings normally are not licensed.

It needs an HSE-licensed contractor and 14 days’ notice.
