Doing it yourself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
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.

Where asbestos turns up
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so buildings across Buckinghamshire built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
Get advice if you are dealing with any of these:
- Loft water tanks
- Old waste on site
- Materials found mid-project
- Asbestos garages
In older buildings across Wingrave, asbestos may be in later additions, so we test before we plan.

Duty holders and landlords in Wingrave

Questions from Wingrave
Do you work on properties in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Do you cover Wingrave and the area around Cheddington station?
Yes, we cover Wingrave and the area towards Cheddington station, about 3.4 miles east.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Does weather affect the work?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then ask for advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
