How asbestos removal works in Fernhurst
After removal, the work area is cleaned and the waste is double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken away, and you get the waste paperwork. Typical materials include gutters and downpipes, flue pipes and floor tiles, and people normally contact us about Artex before plastering and loft water tanks.
In towns and villages like Fernhurst, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, where access across fields or yards needs planning. Clear answers come first: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Fernhurst
Do you work near Haslemere station?
Yes. Haslemere station is about 2.7 miles north of Fernhurst, and we cover both.
Do you come out to small villages like Fernhurst?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
What does removal cost?
Every job is priced individually: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.
How do I get a quote?
Just use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Can I stay at home during removal?
Outdoor work rarely affects you indoors. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
It does not always have to come out: material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is generally needed.
Prices and what affects them
What changes the cost:
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- Parking and access charges
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- The quantity or area
Sometimes a test shows removal isn’t needed, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
Helping us quote
Before you send photos, a few tips:
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- The parking area
- An idea of size
- A close-up from a safe distance
Include any existing survey or test when you send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749; it helps us quote accurately.
What happens
Materials are released carefully and removed whole where possible, never broken up, dropped or cut with power tools. While we work, the area stays out of bounds, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. Late-December sunset in Fernhurst is about 4:00pm, so outdoor jobs start early.
- Tell us what needs removing and send photos
- We test it if needed and plan the job
- We send a quote covering the work and the waste
- We remove it with controls to keep fibres down
- We clean up and send you the waste paperwork
Preparing for the visit
- Do not disturb the material before we get there
- Tell us about anything that is already damaged
- Dig out previous surveys

After the job
If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, as the method may need to change.
Keeping things safe:
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Let us know where we can park
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
Avoid these
Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
If your business premises in Fernhurst were built before 2000, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

Limits to be aware of
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before booking.
Materials in Fernhurst
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Panels and boards
- Soffits (cement)
- Garage and shed roofs
- Flue pipes
- Water tanks
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Gutters and downpipes
- Artex and textured coatings
- Bitumen roof felt
Common reasons for removal jobs in Fernhurst
Not all asbestos materials are equal: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, so their removal is licensed.
People generally contact us about one of these:
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Old cold water tanks
- Finds during refurbishment
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
For non-domestic buildings like Fernhurst Primary School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.
Comparing quotes
- VAT, clearly stated
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- How the work will be done, and the controls used
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence

What it might be made of
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement is the most common material we remove: roofs, gutters, flues and tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.
Textured coatings
Taking the boards down can be an alternative.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
