How asbestos removal works in Aylesford
Once the material is out, we clean up and bag or wrap the waste, and you get the waste paperwork. We often deal with cement roof sheets, textured coatings and cement soffits, and typical jobs are cement flues and gutters and vinyl and thermoplastic tiles.
Properties in areas like Aylesford with larger plots can have more than one cement-roofed building. Nothing is added to the job that you do not need, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Can I do it myself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
Common reasons for removal jobs in Aylesford
Most removal happens because building work would disturb asbestos: anything the work would disturb should be dealt with first.
These come up again and again:
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
- Asbestos garages
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
In older buildings across Aylesford, asbestos may be in later additions, so we identify materials before planning removal.
Before booking anyone
- Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
- What you will receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
- How fibres will be kept down
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
What’s included, and what is not
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- 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 typically separate
- We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before booking.

What it might be made of
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.
Textured coatings
Textured coatings are removed with wet or gel methods, never dry-scraped or sanded. Larger-scale steam or gel removal is notifiable non-licensed work.
Common questions in Aylesford
Do you cover Aylesford from London?
Aylesford is about 28 miles from central London, well within our area.
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then get advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
How do I get a quote?
Just use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Weighing up your options
Should it come out? 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 usually right. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.
