Your questions about asbestos removal in Worton
Do you cover small places like Worton?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
How far is Worton from London?
We cover Worton, about 57 miles from central London.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Do you test before removing asbestos in Worton?
If it hasn’t been identified, yes. The removal method depends on the material.
Can asbestos be left in place?
Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Should you do it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
Typical removal jobs in Worton
Some owners remove visible asbestos before a sale or letting, though in good condition it doesn’t always need to go.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:
- Garage roof sheets
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Old flues
Older buildings in Worton, near Church of St Peter or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so materials are identified first.
Before you book anyone

What to avoid

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste.
Your options compared
