Materials we deal with
Water tanks and flues
Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.
Textured coatings
We soften coatings and remove them wet, never sanding or dry scraping. Larger-scale steam or gel removal is notifiable non-licensed work.
Asbestos removal for Conyer properties

Rural removal near Conyer can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

FAQs for Conyer
How far is Conyer from London?
Conyer is about 41 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do older homes in Conyer have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Conyer can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do I need to move out?
That depends: outdoor jobs do not usually affect you. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE advises against removing asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials need a licensed contractor.
How can I get a price?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. To do that, ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
When can you start?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
After the job
Any asbestos left elsewhere should stay on record, for anyone working there later.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- File the consignment note
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Tell us about parking and access
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
Avoid these
Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.

Where asbestos turns up
Damage from DIY, storms or accidents can make removal necessary, especially if broken material is lying around.
People typically contact us about one of these:
- Cement water tanks in lofts
- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
- Debris left from a previous job
- Finds during refurbishment
In older properties in Conyer, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we identify materials before planning removal.

- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory

- What is not included
Should you do it yourself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
For businesses and landlords in Conyer
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
