Asbestos removal in Esher
Every removal job in Esher is planned first: the method, the controls, the waste and any notification needed. Common materials are cement soffits, gutters and downpipes and textured coatings, and typical jobs are old waste on site and old floor tiles and black adhesive.
In a smaller place like Esher, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, reached through gardens and drives. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

How it works
As each piece comes out, it’s bagged or wrapped and labelled, ready to go to a permitted site. We begin by confirming exactly what we are doing. Late-December sunset in Esher is about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.
- Start with photos, the postcode and any existing reports
- We confirm what the material is and what category of work it falls into
- We quote in writing, including the waste
- On the agreed date we set up the work area and remove the material carefully
- Everything is cleaned up, and the waste paperwork follows
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if something’s broken
- Clear the way to the work area
- Keep the area clear of children and pets

Helpful guides
For landlords, agents and businesses
If you run a business from older premises in Esher, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Esher, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Materials, one by one
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.

Afterwards
File the waste paperwork safely: it proves legal disposal.
Once we’re done:
- File the consignment note
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Keep children and pets away on the day
What to avoid
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
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. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.

Esher questions
Do older homes in Esher have asbestos?
Any home in Esher built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Esher and the area around Esher station?
Yes, we cover Esher and the area towards Esher station, about 0.8 miles north-east.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
How do I get a quote?
Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings generally aren’t licensed.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area involved in the job.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Tell us about the property and what you need.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you are worried about your health.
Typical removal jobs in Esher
Damage from DIY, storms or accidents can make removal necessary, especially if broken material is lying around.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Cement water tanks in lofts
- Garage roof sheets
- Materials found mid-project
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
In a school like Milbourne Lodge School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use.
What to look for in a quote
- What you’ll receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- Whether VAT is included
- What isn’t included
How we price asbestos removal
What changes the cost:
- The quantity or area
- Licensed or non-licensed
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- Travel and parking
Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
Helping us quote
Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- Damaged areas
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
