Asbestos removal near Calvert
What it might be made of

Some old roof felts and bitumen products contain asbestos, which is usually well bound.
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement is the most common material we remove: roofs, gutters, flues and tanks. It’s kept damp and removed whole where possible.
About our asbestos removal in Calvert
Much of the asbestos found in homes is asbestos cement, textured coating or floor tiles. Work on these is normally non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, which still means proper controls. Common materials are textured coatings, water tanks and flue pipes, and typical jobs are old waste on site and sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos.
Rural removal near Calvert can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

Questions from Calvert
How far is Calvert from London?
Calvert is about 48 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you cover small places like Calvert?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
How can I get a price?
Use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you are worried about your health.
What if my house is newer?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: skips and household bins cannot take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Which option is right?
Very cheap quotes can be a warning sign: proper controls, protective equipment, a registered waste carrier and disposal cost money. Ask to see the waste paperwork. The cost of asbestos removal depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Calvert, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
What we deal with in Calvert
Materials deteriorate with age: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is when removal comes up.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Garage roofs and whole garages
- Debris left from a previous job
- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
- Cement water tanks in lofts
In older buildings across Calvert, asbestos may be in later additions, so we test before we plan.
