Asbestos removal near Westfield
Asbestos removal in Westfield
Much of the asbestos found in homes is asbestos cement, textured coating or floor tiles. Work on these is typically non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, which still means proper controls. From old flues and old cold water tanks, we cover water tanks, gutters and downpipes and cement soffits.
In places like Westfield, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. If you’re unsure what you need, ask: we will tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Do you come out to small villages like Westfield?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Do you cover Westfield?
Yes, Westfield is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, though some need a visit first.
Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials need a licensed contractor.

Responsibilities for owners
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Westfield must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Should you do it yourself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
