Common questions in Woodhatch
Do you work near Hildenborough station?
Yes. Hildenborough station is about 1.3 miles south-east of Woodhatch, and we cover both.
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then get in touch and we will advise.
How long does it take to remove a garage roof?
A single garage is normally a short job, though access and condition affect it.
Do you cover Woodhatch?
We do: our area includes Woodhatch and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos and we’ll quote.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Do you work in flats?
We do. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
Which option is right?
Paint or overclad instead? It can work on a sound roof, but preparing it without disturbing the surface is the hard part. Our guide covers the options. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

What it might be made of
Roof felt
We’ll say if it should be tested.
Fixings
The sheets are held on with bolts. We undo them gently to avoid cracking.
Prices and what affects them
Prices vary with:
- The size of the job
- Location, parking and any London charges
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- Waste quantity and disposal
Doing several things in one visit can help, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
Photos that help
Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them without disturbing anything:
- A close-up from a safe distance
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- Approximate dimensions
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
