Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Eynsford, 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.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
How asbestos removal works in Eynsford
Before removal, the material has to be identified. If it hasn’t been tested, we sample it first, since the right method depends on what it is. Common materials are floor tiles, flue pipes and cement roof sheets, and people normally contact us about Artex before plastering and old cold water tanks.
In areas like Eynsford, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Eynsford
Is asbestos common in Eynsford homes?
Any home in Eynsford built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you cover Eynsford?

What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Can I stay at home during removal?
For outdoor jobs, you can typically stay put. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
In many cases it can stay: if it’s in good condition and out of the way, it can stay. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Where does the asbestos go?
It goes to a permitted site, properly packaged, with a registered carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
Where asbestos turns up
Some owners remove visible asbestos before a sale or letting, although sound material can often stay.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to removal jobs:
- Old flues
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
- Garage roofs and whole garages
Landlords near Eynsford station often time removal for when a property is empty.

Materials we deal with
Floor tiles
Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with power tools.
Bitumen and felt
They’re removed by hand.
Can I do it myself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

The cost depends on:
