Doing it yourself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
What we do and do not cover
What’s in and what’s out:
- The room being worked on has to be empty and sealed off
- We test before removal, since a negative result changes everything
- Other materials may need their own approach
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Do you cover small places like Beacon Hill?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
It depends on what we do: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.

A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is usually needed.

What happens next
The ceiling or wall is left ready for your plasterer.
To avoid problems in future:
- Line up the plasterer for afterwards
- Tell us which rooms and roughly how big they are
- Keep pets away
- Clear the rooms before the work
Avoid these
Don’t sand, scrape dry or wire-brush a textured coating before it’s been tested.
Do not use a steamer or chemical stripper on an untested coating.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Beacon Hill must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Where asbestos turns up
Older coatings are often painted over many times, which can make them look newer than they are.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Ceilings due for rewiring or new downlights
- Ceilings due for plastering or skimming
- Coatings damaged by DIY
- Coatings damaged by leaks
Non-domestic buildings like Tylers Green First School should already have records of any textured coatings, before decorators start.
What your quote should include
- Any exclusions
- Where the waste goes, with paperwork
- What paperwork you get
- VAT, clearly stated
