Asbestos removal in Chesham
After removal, the work area is cleaned and the waste is double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken away, with a consignment note for your records. Whether it’s loft water tanks and sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos, we deal with water tanks, gutters and downpipes and cement roof sheets.

Which option is right?
Should it come out? Sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.

Where asbestos turns up
Some owners remove visible asbestos before a sale or letting, although sound material can often stay.
Get advice if you are dealing with any of these:
- Garage roof sheets
- Asbestos found during building work
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
- Textured coatings
For non-domestic buildings like Elmtree Infant and Nursery School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.

Some limits to bear in mind:

If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

What it might be made of
Insulating board and lagging

Floor tiles
The adhesive underneath sometimes needs its own approach.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Chesham
Do you work near Amersham station?
Yes, we cover Chesham and the area towards Amersham station, about 2.6 miles south.
How far is Chesham from London?
Chesham is about 27 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE’s advice is not to do it yourself, and higher-risk materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
Does weather affect the work?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it.
The process
We wear disposable coveralls and suitable respirators, and keep everyone else out of the work area. If anything unexpected turns up, we stop and talk to you. In winter, the light goes in Chesham by about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.

Looking after things afterwards
File the waste paperwork safely: it proves legal disposal.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- File the consignment note
- Book the replacement before removal
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
Don’ts
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
