Asbestos Removal across Cumbria
Farm buildings with cement sheet roofs, shipyard and industrial sites on the west coast, and Lake District guest houses all need asbestos surveys before work starts.
Most asbestos found in homes and smaller buildings, such as cement sheets, floor tiles, bitumen products and textured coatings, can be removed by trained, equipped operatives without an HSE licence. Some of this work must still be notified to HSE before it starts (notifiable non-licensed work).
Guide price: Small removals from £450 · larger jobs quoted after survey.
