Asbestos removal for Albury
About our asbestos removal in Albury
Every removal job in Albury is planned first: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified, before anyone starts. Whether it’s materials found mid-project and floor tiles before a new floor, we deal with water tanks, flue pipes and cement soffits.
In places like Albury, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need.

DIY and asbestos
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Common questions in Albury
Do you come out to small villages like Albury?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you cover Albury from London?
We cover Albury, about 44 miles from central London.
What happens to the waste?
It goes to a permitted site, properly packaged, with a registered carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings generally are not licensed.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
A closer look at the materials
Floor tiles
The adhesive underneath sometimes needs its own approach.
Insulating board and lagging
It needs an HSE-licensed contractor and 14 days’ notice.
Looking after things afterwards
Keep the consignment note with your property records: it shows the asbestos was disposed of legally.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- File the consignment note
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
Don’ts
Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Why people call us in Albury
Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: anything the work would disturb should be dealt with first.
These are some of the things we deal with in Albury:
- Asbestos garages
- Finds during refurbishment
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Cement water tanks in lofts
Older buildings in Albury, near Church of St Helen or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the job needs notifying
- Whether VAT is included
- The scope of the job, in writing
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
What we do and do not cover
A few things to be aware of:
- Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
