Eton Wick: your questions answered
Is asbestos common in Eton Wick homes?
If your home in Eton Wick was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover small places like Eton Wick?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Should all asbestos be removed?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Do you test before removing asbestos in Eton Wick?
If it hasn’t been identified, yes. The right method depends on what the material is.
Do you work in Eton Wick?
Yes. We cover Eton Wick and the surrounding area as part of Windsor and Maidenhead. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
What does licensed work mean?
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.
About our asbestos removal in Eton Wick
In homes, in Eton Wick as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. HSE treats work on these as non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed in most cases, but it still needs the right controls. Whether it’s old flues and sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos, we deal with cement roof sheets, textured coatings and flue pipes and more.
In a village like Eton Wick, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, where access across fields or yards needs planning. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Where asbestos turns up
Selling or letting a property can prompt removal of obvious materials, though in good condition it doesn’t always need to go.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Materials found mid-project
At a school such as Eton Wick CofE First School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
- The documents you will receive
- How the work will be done, and the controls used
- Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed

- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is usually separate
- We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified
