'Scam' firm charged thousands for illegal asbestos removal work
20.04.2023 - 18:27 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
A 'scam operator' that charged people thousands of pounds for illegal asbestos removal has been fined and ordered to pay their victims compensation.
'Asbestos Boss' removed an asbestos insulating board ceiling from an internal garage at a house in Stockport with 'little to no control measures in place.'
They then dumped the hazardous material outside the property 'littering the road and pavement.' That sparked an investigation by Stockport Trading Standards and the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).

They then discovered there had been a number of similar cases of the firm carrying out unlicensed work across the country. These included the removal of asbestos insulating board from 20 service cupboards which Asbestos Boss Ltd charged £3,000 for their illegal work.
However a court heard it was of such poor quality, the site owners were quoted £50-£64,000 to put the work right and make it safe.
Investigators found that Asbestos Boss Limited provided fake air test certificates and waste transfer notes to customers and had also falsified asbestos training certificates and insurance documents.
The company and its director/manager Daniel Cockcroft, dubbed a 'rogue trader' by a judge, also breached a prohibition notice on several occasions preventing them from working with licensed asbestos materials.
Stockport Trading Standards brought charges of fraud by false representation against the company and directors in relation to the falsifying of documents with the intent to deceive, as well as unauthorised use of trade and accreditation logos, which prosecutors said 'gave the impression that the business was credible and that workers were adequately trained'.

Middleton’s old town hall could be demolished to make way for new houses and an 80-bed care home.

It dates to the mid-1960s. Having stood empty for three years, Muller Property Group has submitted plans to demolish the ‘brutalist’ structure and replace it with 20 two and four-bed town houses, as well as an 80-bed care home.
