Asbestos help in Denchworth
Doing it yourself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
About our asbestos removal in Denchworth
We remove asbestos from homes, rented property and commercial buildings across Denchworth: garage roofs, flues, water tanks, Artex and floor tiles among them. Each job follows HSE guidance, and the waste goes to a permitted site. Whether it’s garage roof sheets and vinyl and thermoplastic tiles, we cover water tanks, cement soffits and cement roof sheets and more.
In towns and villages like Denchworth, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, where access across fields or yards needs planning. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Looking after things afterwards
Making good, such as a new roof or ceiling, is generally a separate job, so plan it in advance.
Some practical advice:
- File the consignment note
- Let us know where we can park
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Share any survey or test results
Avoid these
Don’t put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Limits to be aware of
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
- We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling

Denchworth questions
Do you cover small places like Denchworth?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do older homes in Denchworth have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: skips and household bins cannot take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Do you test before removing asbestos in Denchworth?
Unless it’s already been identified, yes: the method depends on what the material is.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.

Materials, one by one
Insulating board and lagging
Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.
Textured coatings
Textured coatings are removed with wet or gel methods, never dry-scraped or sanded. Large-scale steam or gel removal must be notified.
Common reasons for removal jobs in Denchworth
Selling or letting a property can prompt removal of obvious materials, although sound material can often stay.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Garage roof sheets
- Materials found mid-project
Older buildings in Denchworth, near Church of St James or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal.
