FAQs for Upper Wield
Do older homes in Upper Wield have asbestos?
If your home in Upper Wield was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover Upper Wield from London?
We cover Upper Wield, about 50 miles from central London.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Do I need to move out?
Outdoor work rarely affects you indoors. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The right method depends on what the material is.
Choosing the right option
Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and won’t be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. Our quotes are clear about VAT, so you can compare like with like.
Why choose us
- Jobs planned to HSE guidance
- Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone
- No removal until we know what it is

DIY and asbestos
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

Where asbestos turns up
Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: whatever the work will touch should come out first.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Common situations include:
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Cement flues and gutters
- Asbestos garages
- Finds during refurbishment
In older properties in Upper Wield, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so materials are identified first.
What your quote should include

- What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof

Afterwards
If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.
Keeping things safe:
- Tell us about any previous survey

- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
What to avoid

Materials, one by one
Asbestos cement
Cement products make up most removal jobs: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.
Floor tiles
