More about this service

Which option is right?

DIY removal might look cheaper, but HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and disposal still has to be done properly. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.

Materials, one by one

Floor tiles

Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with sanders or grinders.

Bitumen and felt

We remove them without cutting with power tools.

What happens next

If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, for anyone working there later.

If asbestos stays in the building:

  • Let neighbours know if work is near them
  • Send photos of the material and the access
  • File the consignment note
  • Tell us about parking and access

Don’ts

Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.

What affects the price in Castle Town

The cost depends on:

  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space
  • How much there is
  • Parking and access charges
  • What the material is and its state

How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them without disturbing anything:

  • A rough size or measurement

  • Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
  • Where we could park
