Asbestos removal case study for the residential sector - Shepards bush

1. Deconstruct UK case study for the residential sector.
Client: Ayerst Environmental Ltd
Main Contractor: Balfour Beatty plc
Location: Charecroft Estate, ShepherdsBush, London
Contractor: Deconstruct UK Ltd
Completion Date: May 2011
Sector: Construction (Residential)

2. About the Project:
Removal of asbestos containing materials from
occupied high rise residential buildings in
Shepherds Bush, London.
Over the course of 6 months Deconstruct teams were
engaged in the removal of asbestos insulation board, duct
cladding and wall panels throughout the residential tower
blocks at the Charecroft Estate.
The cladding and panelling was typically located in kitchens
and hallways, which meant that residents had to leave their
properties for the day to enable tented enclosures to be
constructed.
Enclosures were formed, asbestos removed, enclosures
tested and site cleared each day to allow the resident to
return to a safe environment that same day.

3. Project Challenges:
The work was undertaken inside occupied flats containing
resident’s personal property so our works had to be carried
out in a neat and tidy manner, ensuring that no damage was
caused.
Our trusted teams of Operatives prepared the work areas
with due consideration for the decoration within the
properties.
The asbestos removal operation had to be completed to
exacting standards as there could be no risk of asbestos
contamination into the property.
With full time attendance by the appointed asbestos
consultant to provide reassurance that the works
were carried out safely, the work areas were thoroughly
checked upon completion before being cleared in good time
for the resident to return home.
