About our asbestos removal in Chiltington
Found asbestos during building work in Chiltington? Stop work in that area and keep people away. We can test it and, if needed, plan its removal. Typical materials include gutters and downpipes, textured coatings and cement roof sheets, and people normally contact us about textured coatings and cement water tanks in lofts.
In a village like Chiltington, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

For landlords, agents and businesses
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
For managing agents and freeholders in Chiltington, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.
The scope of asbestos removal
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
- Making good is normally a separate job
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

Doing it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
What it might be made of
Insulating board and lagging
Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.
Textured coatings
Textured coatings are removed with wet or gel methods, never dry-scraped or sanded. Larger-scale steam or gel removal is notifiable non-licensed work.
