Asbestos in Widnes
Widnes is where the British chemical industry began, on Spike Island in the 1840s, and works still line the Mersey at West Bank and towards Halebank. Behind them are Victorian terraces around the old town and Farnworth, interwar and post-war council estates in Hough Green, Ditton and Halton View, and industrial estates on former chemical land.
The works and older units carry lagging, gaskets, sprayed coatings and asbestos cement cladding, and made ground on former chemical sites can hold asbestos alongside other contaminants — which is where our land remediation team comes in. The terraces mostly turn up Artex, floor tiles and cement flues; the council stock has AIB, cement soffits and garages. Twenty-five miles from our Manchester base, we survey and remove across the WA8 postcode area with site inspections normally arranged within 48 hours.
