Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Old waste on site
- Artex ceilings before renovation

FAQs for Chalfont St Giles
How far is Chalfont St Giles from London?
We cover Chalfont St Giles, about 23 miles from central London.
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.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
It depends on the material and the job. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed work; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.
What happens to the waste?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we will arrange to see it.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
Often it can stay: sound material that will not be disturbed can be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
When can you start?
That depends on the work and current bookings. You’ll get available dates with the quote.
