Looking after things afterwards
Any asbestos left elsewhere should stay on record, so future trades know about it.
A few practical points:
- File the consignment note
- Share any survey or test results

- Keep children and pets away on the day
Avoid these
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.

A closer look at the materials
Water tanks and flues
Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.

Can I do it myself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
