More about this service

Asbestos removal in East Langdon

Once the material is out, we clean up and bag or wrap the waste, and you get the waste paperwork. Common materials are gutters and downpipes, textured coatings and flue pipes, and people normally contact us about asbestos found during building work and floor tiles before a new floor.

In a village like East Langdon, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. We start with a clear answer: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.

If you manage or own a block in East Langdon, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.

Materials, one by one

Bitumen and felt

Bitumen felts can contain asbestos, normally tightly bound.

Floor tiles

Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with sanders or grinders.

Typical removal jobs in East Langdon

Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and insulating board release fibres much more easily than asbestos cement, so their removal is licensed.

You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:

  • Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
  • Garage roof sheets
  • Finds during refurbishment
  • Old flues

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

Can I do it myself?

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

Choosing the right option

Remove, or leave and manage? Sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. Our quotes are clear about VAT.

What you get

  • London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
  • Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone
  • Legal disposal, with paperwork
  • Homes, rented property and workplaces

Read how we quote and published price ranges.

What it costs

The price of asbestos removal depends mainly on:

  • Parking and access charges
  • Disposal costs
  • The category of work
  • The number of samples or the size of the building

Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, because the material is clear.

Sending photos

Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:

  • Where we could park
  • An idea of size
  • Damaged areas
  • A photo of the whole area

Include any existing survey or test when you use our quote form or call 07833 053 749; it helps us quote accurately.

Step by step

Once removal is finished, we clean and check the area, and we talk you through what was done. Before we leave, we explain what we did and what comes next. Outdoor removal in East Langdon is planned to finish in daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:15pm.

  1. Get in touch with the details of the job
  2. We work out what category the work falls into
  3. We agree a date and any notification needed
  4. We set up the work area and remove the material
  5. We dispose of the waste legally and send the paperwork

Getting ready

  • Let us know if something’s broken
  • Keep the area clear of children and pets
  • Don’t disturb the material before we get there

Do I need a test or a survey?

A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
