Removing asbestos in MK16
From Newport Pagnell, Broughton and Willen to small villages, MK16 has every kind of removal job. Town jobs mean planning parking; rural jobs mean planning access.
Newport Pagnell: Older buildings in Newport Pagnell, near Church of St Bede (Roman Catholic) or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal. If you let property near Wolverton station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal. Late-December sunset in Newport Pagnell is about 3:55pm, so outdoor jobs start early.
After we’ve finished in MK16
Any asbestos left elsewhere should stay on record, for anyone working there later.
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of.
What’s included, and what is not
Here’s what asbestos removal covers, and what it does not:
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
- Making good is normally a separate job
- Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
What it might be made of
Textured coatings
Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.
Floor tiles
The adhesive underneath sometimes needs its own approach.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
If you run a business from older premises in MK16, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Prices and what affects them
When we quote, we look at:
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- Travel and parking
- Material and condition
- How easy it is to reach
Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.
Photos that help
Photos often save us a visit:
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- A close-up from a safe distance

MK16: your questions answered
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
What happens to the waste?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Do you work in MK16?
Yes, MK16 is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials must only be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
