Asbestos removal in Woodnesborough

For landlords, agents and businesses
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
What we do and don’t cover
The usual limits are:
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
- Making good is normally a separate job
- We do not remove anything until it’s been identified
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before you book.

What we deal with in Woodnesborough
Selling or letting a property can prompt removal of obvious materials, though in good condition it doesn’t always need to go.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Cement flues and gutters
- Old waste on site
- Garage roofs and whole garages
- Old cold water tanks
Older buildings in Woodnesborough, near Church of St Mary the Virgin or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we test before we plan.

DIY and asbestos
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Materials, one by one
Insulating board and lagging
Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.
Textured coatings
Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.
What happens next
Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Let us know where we can park
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
What to avoid
Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
