Specific materials we handle in Amber ValleyNot all asbestos is found in the same place, and during a renovation, it can turn up in some surprising spots. We are experts in handling the specific materials that frequently appear during refurbishment projects, including:Artex and Textured Coatings: Often found on ceilings and walls, these can release fibres if scraped or sanded during redecoration.Asbestos-Backed Vinyl Tiles: Common in kitchens and hallways, these often come paired with bitumen adhesive, which also contains asbestos.Asbestos Cement Products: This includes garage roofs, soffits, and internal cladding panels often found in utility rooms or behind boilers.Flue Pipes and Water Tanks: Old heating systems often utilised asbestos cement flues or cold water storage tanks that need careful dismantling.Guttering and Downpipes: External renovations often reveal brittle asbestos cement drainage systems that require specialist handling.By focusing on these specific, non-friable materials, we provide a highly efficient service that adheres strictly to the Health & Safety Executive (HSE) Task Manual guidelines for safe handling and removal.
