Questions from Waddesdon
Do you come out to small villages like Waddesdon?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you cover Waddesdon from London?
Waddesdon is about 43 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you test before removing asbestos in Waddesdon?
Yes, if it hasn’t been tested: the way it’s removed depends on the material.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Can asbestos be left in place?
It doesn’t always have to come out: material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
Do I need to move out?
It depends on the job: outdoor jobs do not normally affect you. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
How asbestos removal works in Waddesdon
If your builder has found suspect material in Waddesdon, stop work in that area and keep people away. We will identify it and plan what happens next. Typical jobs include cement water tanks in lofts and asbestos found during building work, including gutters and downpipes, flue pipes and cement roof sheets.
In Waddesdon, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so the route is planned in advance. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

A closer look at the materials
Floor tiles
Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with sanders or grinders.
Textured coatings
Taking the boards down can be an alternative.
What happens next
If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.
After we have finished:
- Share any survey or test results
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
Avoid these
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris.
Limits to be aware of
To be clear about the scope:
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is usually separate

Should you do it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
