About our asbestos removal in Beansheaf Farm
After removal, the work area is cleaned and the waste is double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken away, and you get the waste paperwork. People often contact us about flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and textured coatings, involving water tanks, cement soffits and cement roof sheets.
In a smaller place like Beansheaf Farm, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, with access through the garden or drive. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Beansheaf Farm
Not all asbestos materials are equal: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, which is why that work is licensed.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Garage roofs and whole garages
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Textured coatings
In a school like Calcot Infant School and Nursery, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use.
What your quote should include
- What category of work it is
- Any exclusions
- Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you will get a consignment note

How do I get a quote?
Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
How dangerous is asbestos?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?
HSE advises the public not to try, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.
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.
What’s included, and what is not
Here’s what asbestos removal covers, and what it does not:
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is normally separate
- Some jobs must be notified first, which affects the start date
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before booking.
