Asbestos removal for Dymchurch
Looking after things afterwards

A few practical points:
- Let us know where we can park

- Keep children and pets away on the day
Don’ts
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
About our asbestos removal in Dymchurch
Removal is not always the answer. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we will say so. People often contact us about Artex ceilings before renovation and cement flues and gutters, including cement soffits, gutters and downpipes and flue pipes.
In a smaller place like Dymchurch, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, reached through gardens and drives. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

The coast is within about 5 miles of Dymchurch; on exposed coastal sites, wind affects when outdoor removal can go ahead.

- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Broken sheets in gardens

For rentals close to Westenhanger station, removal fits neatly between tenancies.

Materials, one by one
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.
Water tanks and flues
A Gas Safe engineer disconnects any gas appliance first.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Dymchurch must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Weighing up your options
What kind of work is it? It depends on what the material is and what’s being done. Our guide explains the difference, with links to HSE’s pages. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
