Stalisfield: your questions answered
Do you work near Charing station?
Yes, we cover Stalisfield and the area towards Charing station, about 2.5 miles south.
Could my house in Stalisfield contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area in the job.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
How dangerous is asbestos?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Can the roof be overclad?
Sometimes, if it’s sound, but cleaning and preparing it without disturbing the surface is difficult. Don’t pressure-wash it first.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
What it might be made of
Fixings
Hook bolts and fixings hold the sheets to the frame. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.
Ridge pieces
Ridge cappings are generally asbestos cement too.
Responsibilities for owners
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
Prices and what affects them
Every quote reflects:
- Waste quantity and disposal
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- Material and condition
- The size of the job
Sometimes a test shows removal isn’t needed, because the material is clear.
Photos that help
A few photos can save a site visit:
- Cracks or breaks
- Where we could park

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos and the postcode: just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
