What we deal with in Beckley
Selling or letting a property can prompt removal of obvious materials, although sound material can often stay.
You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Textured coatings
- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
- Old cold water tanks
- Broken sheets in gardens
In older buildings across Beckley, asbestos may be in later additions, so we test before we plan.

Asbestos removal in Beckley
Before removal, the material has to be identified. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. Common materials are cement roof sheets, flue pipes and textured coatings, and people usually contact us about sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos and debris left from a previous job.
In a village like Beckley, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, where access across fields or yards needs planning. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

For businesses and landlords in Beckley
If you run a business from older premises in Beckley, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
What we do and do not cover
We are upfront about what’s included:
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is typically separate
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.

Looking after things afterwards

After the job, keep these in mind:
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
- Let us know where we can park
- Photos of the material and the route in help
Avoid these
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris.
Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
How it works
We wear disposable coveralls and suitable respirators, and keep everyone else out of the work area. It helps if we can park nearby. In winter, the light goes in Beckley by about 3:55pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

- We book the work and notify if required
- We set up the work area and remove the material
- The waste goes to a permitted site with a consignment note

Questions from Beckley
Do older homes in Beckley have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover Beckley from London?
Beckley is about 51 miles from central London, well within our area.
What does removal cost?
It depends on the material, how much there is, its condition, access and disposal. Every job gets a written quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
How can I get a price?
