About our asbestos removal in Botley
We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, so fibre release stays as low as possible. People often contact us about asbestos garages and floor tiles before a new floor, including cement soffits, textured coatings and cement roof sheets.
Properties in towns and villages like Botley with larger plots may have several outbuildings with cement roofs, which can often be dealt with together. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Duty holders and landlords in Botley
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Common reasons for removal jobs in Botley
Some owners remove visible asbestos before a sale or letting, although sound material can often stay.

Botley questions
Is asbestos common in Botley homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Botley can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How far is Botley from London?
Botley is about 65 miles from central London, well within our area.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Do not try to clean up the debris yourself, then contact a professional.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
What does removal cost?
There’s no fixed price: the material, the amount, its condition, access and the waste all matter.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.
What happens to the waste?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
What’s included, and what is not
Some limits to bear in mind:
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
- We do not remove anything until it’s been identified
- Making good is normally a separate job
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Floor tiles
The adhesive underneath sometimes needs its own approach.
Insulating board and lagging
Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.
How we price asbestos removal
What drives the price:
- The survey scope
- Travel and parking
- The type of material and its condition
- How easy it is to reach
How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.
Sending photos
A few photos can save a site visit:
- Approximate dimensions
- The parking area
- Labels, if any
- A clear close-up
Each job is priced individually. To start, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
Should you do it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
