About our asbestos removal in Elmfield
Once the material is out, we clean up and bag or wrap the waste, and you get the waste paperwork. People often contact us about Artex before plastering and old sheds and coal bunkers, involving water tanks, textured coatings and gutters and downpipes.
Homes in Elmfield with bigger gardens may have several outbuildings with cement roofs, which can often be dealt with together. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

What it costs
Our quotes take into account:
- What the material is and its state
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- How much waste there is
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
What to photograph
The most useful photos are:
- Street parking nearby
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- The access route
- Labels, if any
For an accurate quote, tell us what you’ve found, where it is and what you are planning. Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
Can I do it myself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
How it works
At the end, the work area is cleaned with suitable methods and checked, and we talk you through what was done. It helps if we can park nearby. We plan outdoor jobs in Elmfield to finish before dark: that means by about 4:00pm in December, or about 9:20pm in June.
- Tell us what needs removing and send photos
- We test it if needed and plan the job

Elmfield questions
Do you cover Elmfield and the area around Ryde St Johns Road station?
Yes, we cover Elmfield, including the streets around Ryde St Johns Road station.
Could my house in Elmfield contain asbestos?
If your home in Elmfield was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you can’t tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings normally are not licensed.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Where does the asbestos go?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
In many cases it can stay: sound material that won’t be disturbed can be left and managed. Record it and keep an eye on it.
What does removal cost?
Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. We quote each job individually.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Good to know
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is usually separate
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.
Materials we see
- Garage and shed roofs
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Gutters and downpipes
- Soffits (cement)
- Panels and boards
- Bitumen roof felt
- Artex and textured coatings
- Flue pipes
- Water tanks
A closer look at the materials
Insulating board and lagging
Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.
Which option is right?
Be wary of a price that seems too low: controls, equipment and legal disposal all cost money. Always ask for the consignment note. Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.
