Asbestos help in North Charford
Common questions in North Charford
Can you survey a school or hall near North Charford?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.
Do you cover small places like North Charford?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999.

Helpful guides
Can I do it myself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
Typical surveys in North Charford
For workplaces and common parts, the law requires asbestos to be identified and its risk assessed. Most duty holders commission a survey to meet that duty.
These come up again and again:
- Rented homes between tenancies
- Common parts of flats and HMOs
- Demolition of garages, extensions and buildings
- Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises

Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you manage or own a block in North Charford, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
What’s included, and what isn’t
What’s in and what’s out:
- The report describes the building when surveyed; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
- A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it won’t do before building work
- Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.

Materials we deal with
Asbestos cement
Cement roofs, flues, gutters and tanks are among the most common finds. It contains a relatively low proportion of fibres bound in cement, but it releases fibres when broken, cut or abraded.
Pipe lagging
Lagging on older pipes and boilers can contain asbestos and releases fibres easily. It’s licensed work.
