Teynham Street questions
Do older homes in Teynham Street have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Teynham Street may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Teynham Street and the area around Teynham station?
Yes, we cover Teynham Street and the area towards Teynham station, about 0.8 miles south-west.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Make the area safe first: close it off and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials need a licensed contractor.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then ask for advice.
Choosing the right option
Be wary of a price that seems too low: controls, equipment and legal disposal all cost money. Ask to see the waste paperwork. Every quote says whether VAT is included.
