Weighing up your options
Should it come out? Sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is usually right.

DIY and asbestos
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
N9: your questions answered
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
Often it can stay: sound material that will not be disturbed can be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
