Asbestos removal near Cuxton
You do not always have to remove asbestos. If it’s sound and not in the way, it may be better left, and we will say so. From loft water tanks and asbestos garages, we deal with floor tiles, gutters and downpipes and cement soffits and more.
In towns and villages like Cuxton, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

Should you do it yourself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

Why people call us in Cuxton
Most removal happens because building work would disturb asbestos: anything the work would disturb should be dealt with first.
People normally contact us about one of these:
- Debris left from a previous job

At a school such as Cuxton Community Infant School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.

Looking after things afterwards
If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, as the method may need to change.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Photos of the material and the route in help
What to avoid
Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
Limits to be aware of

Common questions in Cuxton
Do you cover Cuxton from London?
Cuxton is about 25 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you come out to small villages like Cuxton?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Can asbestos be left in place?
Often it can stay: sound material that won’t be disturbed can be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Do I need to move out?
It depends on the job: outdoor work rarely means leaving. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we have finished.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Do you work in flats?
Yes, of course. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice.
