Common questions in Crosswater
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you cover Crosswater and the area around Farnham station?
Yes. Farnham station is about 4.3 miles north of Crosswater, and we cover both.
What if the weather’s bad?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
Often it can stay: if it’s in good condition and out of the way, it can stay. Record it and keep an eye on it.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Where does the asbestos go?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
How can I get a price?
Just ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

A closer look at the materials
Bitumen and felt
We remove them without cutting with power tools.
Asbestos cement
Cement products make up most removal jobs: roofs, gutters, flues and tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.
Your options compared
HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and disposal still has to be done properly. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.
What you get
- Clear advice on your options
- Quotes that spell out the scope
- Homes, rented property and workplaces
- Jobs planned to HSE guidance
Read how we quote or the cost guide.
Can I do it myself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
