DIY and asbestos
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.

Waterend questions
Do you cover Waterend and the area around Saunderton station?
Yes. Saunderton station is about 2.2 miles north-east of Waterend, and we cover both.
Do you cover small places like Waterend?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
Where does the asbestos go?
It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site, and you receive the consignment note.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
For managing agents and freeholders in Waterend, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.

Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement is the most common material we remove: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. It’s kept damp and removed whole where possible.
Which option is right?
Removing asbestos before building work avoids stopping the job halfway, when everything has to wait for it to be dealt with. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.
