About our asbestos removal in Boughton Green
Before removal, the material has to be identified. If it hasn’t been tested, we sample it first, since the right method depends on what it is. From garage roofs and whole garages and loft water tanks, we cover cement roof sheets, textured coatings and gutters and downpipes.
In a village like Boughton Green, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, where access across fields or yards needs planning. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

What else we do in Boughton Green
Boughton Green: your questions answered
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Could my house in Boughton Green contain asbestos?
Any home in Boughton Green built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Do you give written quotes?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
Not always. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed work; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.
Can I stay at home during removal?
For outdoor jobs, you can usually stay put. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.
What if my house is newer?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
Materials we deal with
Water tanks and flues
A Gas Safe engineer disconnects any gas appliance first.
Insulating board and lagging
Insulating board, lagging and sprayed coatings are licensed work in most cases.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you run a business from older premises in Boughton Green, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
What happens next
If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.
To avoid problems in future:
- Tell us about parking and access
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
Avoid these
Don’t put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
Doing it yourself?
Asbestos waste cannot 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.
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Your options compared
Be wary of a price that seems too low: proper controls, protective equipment, a registered waste carrier and disposal cost money. Ask to see the waste paperwork. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
