Which option is right?

A closer look at the materials
Textured coatings
Textured coatings are removed with wet or gel methods, never dry-scraped or sanded. Large-scale steam or gel removal must be notified.
Water tanks and flues
Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.
What’s included, and what isn’t
Some limits to bear in mind:
- We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified
- Some jobs must be notified first, which affects the start date
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Materials we see
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Bitumen roof felt
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Water tanks
- Artex and textured coatings
- Soffits (cement)
- Panels and boards
- Garage and shed roofs
- Gutters and downpipes
- Flue pipes
Where asbestos turns up
Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and insulating board release fibres much more easily than asbestos cement, so their removal is licensed.
These come up again and again:
- Cement flues and gutters
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Materials found mid-project
- Loft water tanks
In older buildings across Bowlhead Green, asbestos may be in later additions, so materials are identified first.
Questions to ask before you book
- Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed

How much does asbestos removal cost in Bowlhead Green?
Every job is priced individually: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.
What paperwork will I get?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we will arrange to see it.
What if the weather’s bad?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
