Asbestos removal for Broughton properties
In homes, in Broughton as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. Work on these is normally non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls. Whether it’s old flues and old cold water tanks, we cover textured coatings, flue pipes and water tanks and more.
Properties in towns and villages like Broughton with larger plots may have several outbuildings with cement roofs. Every job comes with paperwork, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Broughton
Do you work near Aylesbury station?
Yes, we cover Broughton and the area towards Aylesbury station, about 2 miles south-west.
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
It varies: lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, while most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
What if the weather’s bad?
It depends on the job: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.
Do you work in Broughton?
We do: our area includes Broughton and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description and we will quote.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, so identifying it before work is important.
What happens to the waste?
It goes to a permitted site, properly packaged, with a registered carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
Good to know
Before you book, note that:
- Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is usually separate
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
What we deal with
- Bitumen roof felt
- Panels and boards
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Garage and shed roofs
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Soffits (cement)

Doing it yourself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
