Wooburn questions
Is asbestos common in Wooburn homes?
If your home in Wooburn was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How far is Wooburn from London?
Wooburn is about 26 miles from central London, well within our area.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
Often it can stay: sound material that won’t be disturbed can be left and managed. Record it and keep an eye on it.
What does licensed work mean?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings usually aren’t licensed.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
How can I get a price?
Just ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Yes, if it hasn’t been tested: the way it’s removed depends on the material.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
