Asbestos removal in Aylesham
Much of the asbestos found in homes is asbestos cement, textured coating or floor tiles. Work on these is normally non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls. People often contact us about outbuildings with cement roofs and garage roofs and whole garages, involving floor tiles, cement roof sheets and textured coatings.
In places like Aylesham, we often remove garage roofs and old sheds, with access through the garden or drive. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Your options compared
Be wary of a price that seems too low: controls, equipment and legal disposal all cost money. Always ask for the consignment note. When comparing quotes, check what’s included: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.

After the job
Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Share any survey or test results
- File the consignment note
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
Don’ts
Don’t put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.

For businesses and landlords in Aylesham
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Aylesham, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

Aylesham questions
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Could my house in Aylesham contain asbestos?
If your home in Aylesham was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you can’t tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
What happens to the waste?
It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note as your record.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, then contact a professional.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
Not always. Cement and textured coatings are usually non-licensed; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.
How quickly can you come out?
It depends on the job and our diary. We will give you dates when we quote.
Can I stay at home during removal?
That depends: outdoor work rarely means leaving. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we have finished.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
If it hasn’t been identified, yes. The right method depends on what the material is.
Materials we deal with
Water tanks and flues
Tanks and flues are disconnected first, then removed with minimal breakage.
Textured coatings
Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.

What we deal with in Aylesham
Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, which is why that work is licensed.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to removal jobs:
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
- Garage roofs and whole garages
- Asbestos found during building work
- Debris left from a previous job
Older buildings in Aylesham, near St Peter or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal.
