When we quote, we look at:

Photos that help
For a quick quote, include:
- The access route
- Street parking nearby
- A rough size or measurement

Include any existing survey or test when you use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
Afterwards
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
Keeping things safe:
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Share any survey or test results
- Tell us about parking and access
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
Avoid these
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Do not let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of.
Doing it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Step by step
If we find more than expected, or something different, we stop and talk to you, rather than carrying on regardless. It helps if we can park nearby. We plan outdoor jobs in Datchet to finish before dark: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:25pm.

Preparing for the visit
- Clear access to the area, loft or garage

FAQs for Datchet
Could my house in Datchet contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover Datchet from London?
We cover Datchet, about 21 miles from central London.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE advises the public not to try, and higher-risk materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
It varies: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings usually are not licensed.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
What does licensed work mean?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
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 ask for advice.
