As with any other instances of Asbestos, once you know that you have an old soil pipe or any kind of drainage such as guttering that contains Asbestos then the likelihood is that removal will be your first option.

Obviously the first thing that you will need to know is whether or not the soil pipe you are removing has been manufactured with Asbestos.  Its removal and disposal becomes a whole lot easier if it does not contain the harmful material.

Do you know if your soil pipe or guttering contains Asbestos?

If you roughly know the age of your property and when the soil pipe was first installed you can make an educated guess as to whether it contains Asbestos or not.  Asbestos soil pipe or guttering usage was introduced in the 1930’s, was very common and continued right up to the late 1990s so, if you suspect your waste drainage was installed anywhere in that timeframe then there is a strong likelihood that it contains Asbestos.

The best way to be sure, and before you consider removing the pipe work, is to get a survey carried out. These are not expensive and will give you clarity regarding the material used.

Assuming that it does contain Asbestos then you need to be aware that removal is not always an easy option and, although it is possible to tackle it yourself, it makes sense to get the experts in.

What Must I Consider when Handling Asbestos Soil Pipes

If the soil pipe is still in situ it can be a difficult job to remove it yourself, they are often heavy and bulky items and can involve a small degree of ground excavation and building works. You’ll need the right PPE equipment and you’ll need to ensure that there is minimal damage to the structure of the pipe whilst you remove it.

A Word of Caution if you go Down the DIY Route
