Common questions in Chawley
Do you work near Oxford station?
Yes, we cover Chawley and the area towards Oxford station, about 2.4 miles north-east.
Do you cover small places like Chawley?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.

Yes. Send us the details of the premises.
How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
Where does the asbestos go?
It goes to a permitted site, properly packaged, with a registered carrier, and you get the consignment note.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. Then call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
Can asbestos be left in place?
Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
Prices and what affects them
Quotes vary because of:
- How many samples are needed
- The quantity or area
- The category of work
- How easy it is to reach
How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.

- A rough size or measurement

For a quote, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, the material and some photos.

Can I do it myself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
What’s included, and what isn’t
The usual limits are:
- We do not remove anything until it’s been identified
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is generally separate
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we deal with
- Panels and boards
- Gutters and downpipes
- Water tanks
- Garage and shed roofs
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Bitumen roof felt
- Soffits (cement)
- Flue pipes
- Artex and textured coatings
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
