Asbestos removal for Axmansford
Your questions about asbestos removal in Axmansford
Is asbestos common in Axmansford homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Axmansford from London?
Axmansford is about 48 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
It varies: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings generally are not licensed.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
Often it can stay: sound material that will not be disturbed can be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Asbestos removal for Axmansford properties
We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, to keep fibre release as low as possible. Whether it’s debris left from a previous job and old floor tiles and black adhesive, we cover cement soffits, gutters and downpipes and water tanks.
In a village like Axmansford, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

How we price asbestos removal
What changes the cost:
- Parking and access charges
- How much waste there is
- The type of material and its condition
- The category of work
What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.
Sending photos
Photos often save us a visit:
- Visible markings
- The parking area
- A photo of the whole area
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
Include any existing survey or test when you send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749; it helps us quote accurately.
Your options compared
Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and won’t be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is generally right. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
Why choose us
- Waste paperwork for every removal
- Work done to the regulations
- Homes, rented property and workplaces
- London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond

DIY and asbestos
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
Materials we deal with
Floor tiles
Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with power tools.
Insulating board and lagging
Insulating board, lagging and sprayed coatings are licensed work in most cases.
For landlords, agents and businesses
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Axmansford, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
After we have finished in Axmansford
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you get the consignment note showing where the waste went.
A few practical points:
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Book the replacement before removal
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
Avoid these
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
