Asbestos Removal Bury | HSE Licensed Contractor

Asbestos in Bury

Bury's textile and paper mills line the Irwell and Roch valleys, with the East Lancashire Railway running through them and Peel Tower on Holcombe Hill above. Around the market and The Rock are Victorian terraces; Radcliffe, Prestwich and Whitefield are largely interwar and post-war semis; Ramsbottom and Tottington are stone terraces and cottages; and there are 1960s–70s council estates and low-rise flats across the borough.

The mills give us lagging, AIB and cement roofing; the terraces give Artex, floor tiles and cement flues; the semis and council stock give asbestos cement garages, soffits, cold-water tanks and the occasional AIB panel behind a heater or in an airing cupboard. Bury is ten miles from our Manchester base, so surveys and removal across the BL, M25 and M45 postcodes; site inspections can normally be arranged within 48 hours.

IDENTIFICATION FIRST

Asbestos surveys and testing in Bury

Most jobs start with identification, not removal. We carry out surveys and sampling across Bury and will confirm the survey date when arranging your booking.

In Bury the usual job is a garage roof, on a post-war semi or in a garage block, and a single sample is often all it takes to settle the question.

Sampling and testing

If you have one suspect material — a ceiling coating, a floor tile, a garage roof sheet — we take samples, seal the sample point, and send them to a UKAS-accredited laboratory. Results typically available within 48 hours, with a written result you can hand to a solicitor, a landlord or a main contractor.

Management survey

The standard survey for a building in normal use. It identifies what is present, what condition it is in, and what needs managing. This is the survey behind your asbestos register and your management plan.

Refurbishment and demolition survey

Required before any work that disturbs the fabric of the building. It is intrusive, it is specific to the area being worked on, and it is the survey main contractors and building control will ask for.

Which one do you need? If you are managing a building, a management survey. If you are about to work on it, a refurbishment and demolition survey. If you have one material and one question, a sample.

As an HSE-licensed contractor we can survey, remove and dispose under one appointment, which means no gap between the result and the work. If the result comes back negative, you have a clear answer and no removal cost.
