Your questions about asbestos removal in Crockham Hill

Do you work near Edenbridge station?

Yes. Edenbridge station is about 1.9 miles south of Crockham Hill, and we cover both.

Could my house in Crockham Hill contain asbestos?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Could my home contain asbestos?

If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

It depends on what we do: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.

Can asbestos go in my bin?

Never: skips and household bins cannot take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.

Can you help with a shop or office?

We do. Send us the details of the premises.

What does removal cost?

Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. We quote each job individually.

For landlords, agents and businesses

If you run a business from older premises in Crockham Hill, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

If you manage or own a block in Crockham Hill, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.

Prices and what affects them

The biggest factors in the price are:

  • Access to the area
  • Material and condition
  • How many samples are needed
  • Parking and access charges

Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

Sending photos

Before you send photos, a few tips:

  • Visible markings
  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • Cracks or breaks
  • The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch

Not sure what you need? Use our quote form or call 07833 053 749 and describe the problem, and we’ll advise.

Typical removal jobs in Crockham Hill

Selling or letting a property can prompt removal of obvious materials, though in good condition it does not always need to go.

You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:

  • Old sheds and coal bunkers
  • Artex ceilings before renovation
  • Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
  • Cement water tanks in lofts

In older buildings across Crockham Hill, asbestos may be in later additions, so we test before we plan.

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
  • What isn’t included
  • Which laboratory analyses samples
  • Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed

What to check before you book

Materials we deal with

Floor tiles

Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with power tools.

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement is the most common material we remove: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.

Options to consider in Crockham Hill

Sealing or enclosing is sometimes possible, but the asbestos is still there and needs recording for future work. We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

What you get

  • Accredited laboratory results
  • Reports and results you can share
  • Identify first, remove only when needed
  • Houses, flats and business premises

See how we quote or the cost guide.

What happens

Materials are released carefully and removed whole where possible, without breaking, dropping or power tools. Before we leave, we explain what we did and what comes next. In winter, the light goes in Crockham Hill by about 3:55pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

  1. Tell us what needs removing and send photos
  2. We test the material if needed
  3. We plan the job and send a written quote
  4. We remove the material with controls to keep fibres down
  5. We clean up, dispose of the waste legally and send the consignment note

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions
  • Let us know if something’s broken
  • Clear access to the area, loft or garage

Can I do it myself?

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
