We remove asbestos from homes, rented property and commercial buildings across York Town: garage roofs, flues, water tanks, Artex and floor tiles among them. Every job is planned to HSE guidance, with the waste taken to a permitted site. From asbestos garages and old flues, we deal with flue pipes, water tanks and floor tiles and more.

Typical removal jobs in York Town

Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: anything the work would disturb should be dealt with first.

Common situations in older properties include:

  • Outbuildings with cement roofs
  • Finds during refurbishment
  • Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
  • Artex before plastering

In older properties in York Town, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so materials are identified first.

Options to consider in York Town

Dealing with asbestos before work starts keeps the project on track, rather than halting work when it’s found. Dealing with asbestos before building work is generally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.

Why us?

  • Accredited laboratory results
  • Houses, flats and business premises
  • Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations
  • Covering London and the South East

Take a look at how we price jobs or our cost guide.

Doing it yourself?

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

Helpful guides

Duty holders and landlords in York Town

If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in York Town, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.

Afterwards

Making good, such as a new roof or ceiling, is normally a separate job, so plan it in advance.

If asbestos stays in the building:

  • Let us know where we can park
  • Photos of the material and the route in help
  • Tell us about any previous survey
  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date

What to avoid

Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.

Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.

What affects the price in York Town

The biggest factors in the price are:

  • How much waste there is
  • Licensed or non-licensed
  • Parking and access charges
  • How many samples are needed

Access makes a big difference to cost, so tell us about access.

Helping us quote

What to photograph:

  • The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
  • The parking area
  • Labels, if any
  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it

If you have a survey or test result, include it when you send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
