DIY and asbestos
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

- Waste paperwork for every removal
- Quotes that spell out the scope
Materials we deal with
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement is the most common material we remove: roofs, gutters, flues and tanks. It’s kept damp and removed whole where possible.
Floor tiles
Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with power tools.
Questions from Alfold Crossways
How far is Alfold Crossways from London?
We cover Alfold Crossways, about 33 miles from central London.
Could my house in Alfold Crossways contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Alfold Crossways can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
When can you start?
That depends on the work and current bookings. We will give you dates when we quote.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE advises the public not to try, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.

Limits to be aware of
It’s worth knowing what asbestos removal does and does not cover:
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is normally separate
- Some jobs must be notified first, which affects the start date
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

Looking after things afterwards
