Asbestos help in Wivelsfield Green

About our asbestos removal in Wivelsfield Green

Licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, and has to be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. We’ll tell you if your job in Wivelsfield Green falls into that category. Common materials are textured coatings, cement roof sheets and water tanks, and people typically contact us about old sheds and coal bunkers and garage roofs and whole garages.

In Wivelsfield Green, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. We only recommend work that is needed.

After we’ve finished in Wivelsfield Green

If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.

Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:

  • Photos of the material and the route in help
  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
  • Share any survey or test results

Avoid these

Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.

Which option is right?

Remove, or leave and manage? Sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is typically right. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.

Why us?

  • London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
  • Work done to the regulations
  • Accredited laboratory results
  • Written quotes that say what’s included

Choosing an asbestos contractor

Doing it yourself?

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

The process

Waste is double-bagged or wrapped in heavy polythene and labelled as we go, then loaded for disposal at a permitted site. It helps if we can park nearby, so let us know about any restrictions. In winter, the light goes in Wivelsfield Green by about 3:55pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

  1. Start with photos, the postcode and any existing reports
  2. We identify the material and work out whether the job is licensed, notifiable or non-licensed
  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

Before we arrive

  • Keep away from the material in the meantime
  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
