Asbestos removal for Ascot properties
Asbestos materials are kept wet, taken out whole where we can, and never cut with power tools, so fibre release stays as low as possible. From cement flues and gutters and Artex before plastering, we cover floor tiles, water tanks and textured coatings and more.
In a village like Ascot, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Duty holders and landlords in Ascot
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Ascot must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
After we have finished in Ascot
If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, as the method may need to change.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
What to avoid
Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
Doing it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Where asbestos turns up
Some owners remove visible asbestos before a sale or letting, although sound material can often stay.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:
- Old waste on site
- Cement flues and gutters
- Asbestos garages
- Finds during refurbishment
If you let property near Ascot station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.
