DIY and asbestos
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

Our team wears coveralls and respiratory protection, and nobody else comes near. If anything unexpected turns up, we stop and talk to you. Late-December sunset in Shottermill is about 4:00pm, so winter roof jobs start early and finish in daylight.

Shottermill questions
How far is Shottermill from London?
Shottermill is about 40 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you work near Haslemere station?
Yes. Haslemere station is about 0.8 miles east of Shottermill, and we cover both.
What happens to the old roof sheets?
They’re wrapped in heavy polythene, labelled and taken to a permitted site.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
What does licensed work mean?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Where asbestos turns up
Storm damage can leave broken pieces in gardens and drives, which should be picked up by someone who knows how.
You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Pieces of broken roof
- Roofs to clear before demolition
- Carport roofs
- Single and double garage roofs
Garages on busy roads like the A287 need loading planned in advance.
