Asbestos help in Upper Clatford

Asbestos removal in Upper Clatford

Higher-risk materials such as pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, which must be carried out by a contractor holding an HSE licence. We’ll tell you if your job in Upper Clatford falls into that category. Whether it’s asbestos found during building work and garage roofs and whole garages, we deal with textured coatings, cement roof sheets and flue pipes.

In towns and villages like Upper Clatford, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so you know where you stand.

Looking after things afterwards

Keep the consignment note with your property records: it proves legal disposal.

Going forward:

  • Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
  • Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Share any survey or test results
  • Tell us about parking and access

Things not to do

Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.

Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris.

DIY and asbestos

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

The scope of asbestos removal

It’s worth knowing what asbestos removal does and does not cover:

  • Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
  • Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
  • We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.

  • Panels and boards

Common reasons for removal jobs in Upper Clatford

Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and insulating board release fibres much more easily than asbestos cement, which is why that work is licensed.

If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:

  • Old waste on site
  • Old floor tiles and black adhesive
  • Old flues
  • Garage roofs and whole garages

At a school such as Balksbury Junior School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.

What your quote should include

  • The method and controls
  • Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
  • What you’ll receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
  • VAT, clearly stated

FAQs for Upper Clatford

Do you work near Andover station?

Yes, we cover Upper Clatford and the area towards Andover station, about 1.3 miles north.

Is asbestos common in Upper Clatford homes?

That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Upper Clatford may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Can asbestos go in my bin?

No: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.

Do I need a test or a survey?

Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

How can I get a price?

Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

Could my home contain asbestos?

Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.

Do I need to move out?

For outdoor jobs, you can typically stay put. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.

Do you work on commercial premises?

Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
