Prices and what affects them
The price of asbestos removal depends mainly on:
- Access to the area
- What the material is and its state
- Parking and access charges
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
Photos that help

- An idea of size

About our asbestos removal in Begbroke
Once the material is out, we clean up and bag or wrap the waste, with a consignment note for your records. Common materials are floor tiles, water tanks and cement roof sheets, and people usually contact us about vinyl and thermoplastic tiles and sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos.
Rural removal near Begbroke can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. We start with a clear answer: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

FAQs for Begbroke
Do you cover small places like Begbroke?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Do older homes in Begbroke have asbestos?
If your home in Begbroke was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then ask for advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
What does removal cost?
There is no fixed price: the material, the amount, its condition, access and the waste all matter.
Do you work in flats?
Yes, of course. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.

Making good, such as a new roof or ceiling, is generally a separate job, so plan it in advance.
After we have finished:
- Let us know where we can park
- File the consignment note
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
Don’ts
Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.

DIY and asbestos
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
