Asbestos removal for Yiewsley

How asbestos removal works in Yiewsley

Higher-risk materials such as pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, which must be carried out by a contractor holding an HSE licence. We will explain what applies to your job in Yiewsley. People often contact us about flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos, including cement soffits, floor tiles and flue pipes.

In towns and villages like Yiewsley, outbuildings are often only reachable through a house or lane, so we plan how to get the waste out. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

DIY and asbestos

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Yiewsley

Do you work near Southall station?

Yes. Southall station is about 1.8 miles south of Yiewsley, and we cover both.

Do you work in Yiewsley despite London parking restrictions?

Yes, we work across London. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan.

Do you work in flats?

Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.

How quickly can you come out?

Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.

How can I get a price?

Just use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.

Which asbestos work needs a licence?

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. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.

What paperwork will I get?

A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.

My builder has found asbestos. What now?

Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.

After we’ve finished in Yiewsley

After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you get the consignment note showing where the waste went.

Looking after any asbestos that remains:

  • Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • Share any survey or test results

Things not to do

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.

Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.

Good to know

Some limits to bear in mind:

  • Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
  • Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
  • Making good is normally a separate job

More about this service

Your options compared

Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and will not be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. Access makes a big difference to cost, so tell us about access.

Materials, one by one

Asbestos cement

Cement products make up most removal jobs: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.

Textured coatings

Textured coatings are removed with wet or gel methods, never dry-scraped or sanded. Large-scale steam or gel removal must be notified.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Yiewsley

Materials deteriorate with age: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is when removal comes up.

Common situations in older properties include:

  • Cement flues and gutters
  • Materials found mid-project
  • Debris left from a previous job
  • Old cold water tanks

Older buildings in Yiewsley, near St Joseph the Worker & Dovetail Centre or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we test before we plan.

What your quote should include

  • If the price includes VAT
  • What is not included
  • Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed
  • The documents you will receive
