Asbestos help in Cippenham
Asbestos removal for Cippenham properties
Much of the asbestos found in homes is asbestos cement, textured coating or floor tiles. HSE treats work on these as non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed in most cases, but it still needs the right controls. Typical materials include flue pipes, cement roof sheets and water tanks, and people usually contact us about finds during refurbishment and textured coatings.
Homes in Cippenham with bigger gardens can have more than one cement-roofed building, which can often be dealt with together. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Where asbestos turns up
Sometimes damage forces the issue, especially if broken material is lying around.
In older properties, we often see:
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
- Materials found mid-project
- Loft water tanks
- Textured coatings
In older buildings across Cippenham, asbestos may be in later additions, so we identify materials before planning removal.

Your options compared
Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and won’t be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

Helpful guides
Can I do it myself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
Cippenham questions
Do you cover Cippenham and the area around Burnham station?
Yes, we cover Cippenham and the area towards Burnham station, about 0.6 miles north-west.
Is asbestos common in Cippenham homes?
Any home in Cippenham built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
What does licensed work mean?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The right method depends on what the material is.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE advises against removing asbestos yourself. Licensed materials must only be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor.

How we price asbestos removal
Every quote reflects:
- The survey scope
- The quantity or area
- Material and condition
- How much waste there is
What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.
Sending photos
Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- The access route
- Damaged areas
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
If you have a survey or test result, include it when you use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
Materials, one by one
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.
Water tanks and flues
Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.
What we do and don’t cover
Before booking, note that:
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is generally separate
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
