Asbestos removal in Boars Hill
How asbestos removal works in Boars Hill
Every removal job in Boars Hill is planned first: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified. Whether it’s old cold water tanks and outbuildings with cement roofs, we deal with flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and cement soffits and more.
In a village like Boars Hill, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

Helpful guides
Can I do it myself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Boars Hill
Old materials break down over time: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is often when people decide to remove them.
You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Textured coatings
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Loft water tanks
- Debris left from a previous job
Older buildings in Boars Hill, near Church of St Peter or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal.
What your quote should include
- What paperwork you get
- Which areas and materials are covered
- If the price includes VAT
- Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed
