Asbestos removal in Adisham
About our asbestos removal in Adisham
After removal, the work area is cleaned and the waste is double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken away, with a consignment note for your records. We often deal with textured coatings, flue pipes and cement soffits, and people normally contact us about outbuildings with cement roofs and asbestos garages.
In places like Adisham, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, for your records.

Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Adisham: your questions answered
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Do you work near Adisham station?
Yes, we cover Adisham, including the streets around Adisham station.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.
Where does the asbestos go?
It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you receive the consignment note.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: skips and household bins cannot take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
What it costs
The price of asbestos removal depends mainly on:
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- Licensed or non-licensed
- Parking and access charges
- How easy it is to reach
Dealing with asbestos before building work is usually cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
Sending photos
Photo tips:
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- An idea of size
- Cracks or breaks
If you have a survey or test result, include it when you send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
Where asbestos turns up
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so pre-2000 buildings across Kent may contain it.
Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:
- Garage roof sheets
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Cement flues and gutters
- Artex before plastering
Older buildings in Adisham, near Church of the Holy Innocents or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal.
Before you book anyone
- Whether VAT is included
- The method and controls
- The documents you’ll receive
- Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed
Materials, one by one
Water tanks and flues
Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.
Bitumen and felt
They’re removed by hand.
Can I do it myself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
After we’ve finished in Adisham
Replacement work is normally separate, so plan it before the removal date.
A few practical points:
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
Things not to do
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
The process
We start by setting up and segregating the work area, and keep the material wet as we work. Our team uses the right protective equipment, and keeps dust to a minimum.

- Share photos, the postcode and any survey or test you have
- We confirm what the material is and what category of work it falls into
- We quote in writing, including the waste
- We set up, keep the material damp and take it out whole where we can
- We clean the area and send the consignment note
Preparing for the visit
- Don’t disturb the material before we get there
