Asbestos Water Tank Removal in Bingham, Nottinghamshire

You might be tempted to grab a hammer and break the tank into pieces to get it through the loft hatch, but that is the most dangerous thing you could do. These tanks are made from asbestos cement, where the fibres are 'bonded' within the material. The moment you crack, saw, or smash it, those microscopic fibres are released into the air of your home. Breathing in these fibres is what leads to serious long-term health issues. It is just not worth the gamble with your health or your family's safety. We use professional wetting agents and fibre suppression techniques to ensure that no dust is released during the removal process, keeping your home environment completely safe.

We do not just haul the tank out and hope for the best. We follow a strict safety procedure tailored for asbestos cement. First, we protect the surrounding area with heavy-duty sheeting. We then use a specialized liquid to wet down the tank, which prevents any fibres from becoming airborne if the material is stressed. We dismantle the tank as carefully as possible, often keeping it in large sections to minimize any breakage. Every piece is then double-wrapped in regulated polythene and sealed before it ever leaves your loft space. Finally, we perform a thorough clean-up using fibre-trapping wipes and HEPA-filtered vacuums to ensure the area is ready for your plumber or builder to step in immediately.

When it comes to asbestos, the job is not finished until the waste is legally disposed of. As a registered waste carrier, Asbestos Clear UK ensures that every tank we remove is taken to a specialist waste transfer station. We provide you with a Waste Consignment Note, which is your vital legal proof that the hazardous material was handled correctly. This is an essential document to keep, especially if you ever decide to sell your property in the future. It gives you, and any future owners, total peace of mind that the job was done by a professional who follows the HSE guidelines to the letter.
