FAQs for Four Throws
Do you cover Four Throws and the area around Etchingham station?
Yes. Etchingham station is about 4.5 miles south-west of Four Throws, and we cover both.
Do you cover Four Throws from London?
We cover Four Throws, about 42 miles from central London.
How much does asbestos removal cost in Four Throws?
It depends on the material, how much there is, its condition, access and disposal. We quote each job individually.
Where does the asbestos go?
It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note as your record.
Can asbestos be left in place?
Often 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.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Will I get the price in writing?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
What it might be made of
Insulating board and lagging
Insulating board, lagging and sprayed coatings are licensed work in most cases.
Water tanks and flues
Tanks and flues are disconnected first, then removed with minimal breakage.
Why people call us in Four Throws
Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so buildings across Kent built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Garage roofs and whole garages
- Debris left from a previous job
- Artex before plastering
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
In older buildings across Four Throws, asbestos may be in later additions, so materials are identified first.
Before you book anyone
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
- If the price includes VAT
- How fibres will be kept down
- Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed
The process
Materials are released carefully and removed whole where possible, never broken up, dropped or cut with power tools. The work area is kept clear while we are working, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. Late-December sunset in Four Throws 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
- A written quote follows, covering method, controls and disposal
- We set up, keep the material damp and take it out whole where we can
- Everything is cleaned up, and the waste paperwork follows
Getting ready
- Tell us about parking and access
- Let us know if something’s broken

DIY and asbestos
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Options to consider in Four Throws
Licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed? The material and the job decide. Our guide explains the difference, with links to HSE’s pages. Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
Why people choose us
- Jobs planned to HSE guidance
- Reports and results you can share
- Covering London and the South East
- No removal until we know what it is
Read our prices page or published price ranges.
Afterwards
Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
Keeping things safe:
- Share any survey or test results
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
What to avoid
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
For businesses and landlords in Four Throws
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
If you run a business from older premises in Four Throws, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
