Asbestos removal in Temple Mills

Asbestos removal near Temple Mills

Much of the asbestos found in homes is asbestos cement, textured coating or floor tiles. HSE treats work on these as non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed in most cases, which still means proper controls. Typical materials include gutters and downpipes, cement roof sheets and water tanks, and people typically contact us about old waste on site and materials found mid-project.

Removal jobs around Temple Mills often mean working in flats, back gardens and tight spaces, so access and parking are planned carefully. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

What we deal with in Temple Mills

Old materials break down over time: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is when removal comes up.

Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:

  • Asbestos garages
  • Old waste on site
  • Old flues
  • Old floor tiles and black adhesive

On busy roads like the A106, loading the waste needs planning, so mention it.

How to choose an asbestos contractor

Common questions in Temple Mills

Do you work near Stratford International station?

Yes. Stratford International station is close to the centre of Temple Mills, and we cover the whole area.

Could my house in Temple Mills contain asbestos?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Where does the asbestos go?

It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note as your record.

What if my house is newer?

Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

Not always. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.

Can you help with a shop or office?

We do. Send us the details of the premises.

How dangerous is asbestos?

Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.

Doing it yourself?

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

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

  • Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor

Looking after things afterwards

If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, for anyone working there later.

A few practical points:

  • Share any survey or test results
  • Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • Let us know where we can park

Don’ts

Don’t jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.

Weighing up your options

Remove, or leave and manage? Sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is normally right. A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
