Limits to be aware of
What’s in and what’s out:

- Making good is normally a separate job
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor

Looking after things afterwards
Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
A few practical points:
- Tell us about parking and access
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
Avoid these
Do not let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Weighing up your options
Be wary of a price that seems too low: proper controls, protective equipment, a registered waste carrier and disposal cost money. Ask to see the waste paperwork. Access makes a big difference to cost, so tell us about access.

What it might be made of
Floor tiles
The adhesive underneath sometimes needs its own approach.
Insulating board and lagging
Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
What we deal with in West Chiltington Common
Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: whatever the work will touch should come out first.

- Old flues
