Asbestos removal in Crouch
About our asbestos removal in Crouch
Asbestos removal in Crouch covers homes, rental property and workplaces: garage roofs, flues, water tanks, Artex and floor tiles among them. Each job follows HSE guidance, and the waste goes to a permitted site. Typical materials include cement roof sheets, flue pipes and floor tiles, and typical jobs are loft water tanks and flue pipes, gutters and downpipes.
In places like Crouch, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

Which option is right?
DIY removal might look cheaper, but HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and disposal still has to be done properly. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.

Crouch questions
Do you work near Borough Green & Wrotham station?
Yes. Borough Green & Wrotham station is about 1.2 miles north of Crouch, and we cover both.
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is normally needed.
Do you work in Crouch?
Yes. We cover Crouch and the surrounding area as part of Kent. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.
How can I get a price?
Just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
DIY and asbestos
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
After we’ve finished in Crouch
If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, because the plan may need to change.
Once we’re done:
- Book the replacement before removal
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
Don’ts
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Don’t put asbestos in household bins or skips.
