Asbestos removal across Slough
Common removal jobs in Slough include roofs, coatings, tiles, flues and tanks, from the bigger towns to the smallest villages.
Slough: In older properties in Slough, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so materials are identified first. In a school like Herschel Grammar School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use. We plan outdoor jobs in Slough to finish before dark: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:25pm.
Good to know
To be clear about the scope:
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is generally separate
Which option is right?
Should it come out? Sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense.

Materials, one by one
Bitumen and felt
We remove them without cutting with power tools.
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement is the most common material we remove: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.
Common reasons for removal jobs in Slough
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so buildings across Slough built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
- Asbestos garages
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
- Old waste on site
Prices and what affects them
Our quotes take into account:
- The type of material and its condition

Slough questions
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
Can asbestos be left in place?
In many cases it can stay: sound material that won’t be disturbed can be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
It varies: lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, while most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
