Asbestos removal in Farleigh Green
About our asbestos removal in Farleigh Green
You do not always have to remove asbestos. If it’s sound and not in the way, it may be better left, and we will tell you honestly when that is the case. People often contact us about flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and debris left from a previous job, involving cement roof sheets, flue pipes and water tanks.
In a village like Farleigh Green, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, where access across fields or yards needs planning. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

Options to consider in Farleigh Green
Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and won’t be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is usually right. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.

FAQs for Farleigh Green
Do you work near East Farleigh station?
Yes. East Farleigh station is about 1 mile north-east of Farleigh Green, and we cover both.
Is asbestos common in Farleigh Green homes?
If your home in Farleigh Green was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you can’t tell by looking. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. To do that, call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us for advice.

Doing it yourself?
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
