Asbestos removal in Caulcott
We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, to keep fibre release as low as possible. Common materials are flue pipes, water tanks and cement soffits, and typical jobs are debris left from a previous job and garage roofs and whole garages.
In places like Caulcott, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

A closer look at the materials
Bitumen and felt
Some old roof felts and bitumen products contain asbestos, which is typically well bound.
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.
Where asbestos turns up
Old materials break down over time: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is often when people decide to remove them.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Common situations include:
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Finds during refurbishment
- Old waste on site
- Floor tiles before a new floor
Older buildings in Caulcott, near Heyford Park Chapel or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so materials are identified first.

Questions from Caulcott
Could my house in Caulcott contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Caulcott can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you come out to small villages like Caulcott?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. To do that, call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
