Asbestos removal for Ware properties

You do not always have to remove asbestos. If it’s sound and not in the way, it may be better left, and we will tell you honestly when that is the case. Typical materials include gutters and downpipes, water tanks and floor tiles, and people normally contact us about old floor tiles and black adhesive and old sheds and coal bunkers.

In Ware, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. We start with a clear answer: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

Duty holders and landlords in Ware

Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Ware must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

Should you do it yourself?

Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

Questions from Ware

Do you cover small places like Ware?

We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.

Do you cover Ware from London?

We cover Ware, about 60 miles from central London.

Does all asbestos have to be removed?

Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then get in touch and we will advise.

Do you test before removing asbestos in Ware?

Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The right method depends on what the material is.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.

Can I remove asbestos myself?

HSE advises the public not to try, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.

What happens next

If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, so future trades know about it.

Looking after any asbestos that remains:

  • Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Let neighbours know if work is near them
  • Send photos of the material and the access
  • Share any survey or test results

What to avoid

Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.

The process

Unexpected materials mean we pause and discuss, before changing the plan. Before anything starts, we confirm the areas and materials with you, so there’s no confusion. Late-December sunset in Ware is about 3:50pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

  1. Start with photos, the postcode and any existing reports
  2. We confirm what the material is and what category of work it falls into
  3. We quote in writing, including the waste
  4. We set up, keep the material damp and take it out whole where we can
  5. Everything is cleaned up, and the waste paperwork follows

Prices and what affects them

The price of asbestos removal depends mainly on:

  • The quantity or area
  • Licensed or non-licensed
  • What the material is and its state
  • Location, parking and any London charges

Dealing with asbestos before building work is usually cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.

Photos that help

Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them without disturbing anything:

  • A rough size or measurement
  • The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
  • Visible markings
  • A wide shot showing where the material is

For a quote, use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, the material and some photos.

Which option is right?

Sealing or enclosing is sometimes possible, but the asbestos is still there and needs recording for future work. Doing several things in one visit can help, such as testing several materials at once.

Why choose us

  • Written quotes that say what’s included
  • Records for your files
