Asbestos removal in Gibraltar

Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If it hasn’t been tested, we sample it first, since the right method depends on what it is. Typical materials include gutters and downpipes, textured coatings and floor tiles, and people generally contact us about flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and outbuildings with cement roofs.

Rural removal near Gibraltar can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

Prices and what affects them

We base our quote on:

  • Location, parking and any London charges
  • Licensed or non-licensed
  • The quantity or area
  • How easy it is to reach

How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

Sending photos

To help us quote quickly, send:

  • An overall view
  • Where we could park
  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it
  • The access route

We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. To start, fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.

What happens

Waste is double-bagged or wrapped in heavy polythene and labelled as we go, ready to go to a permitted site. We keep the work area clear of other people while we work, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere. Late-December sunset in Gibraltar is about 3:55pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

  1. Get in touch with the details of the job
  2. We work out what category the work falls into
  3. We book the work and notify if required
  4. On the day we set up, remove and bag the material
  5. We dispose of the waste legally and send the paperwork

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if something’s broken
  • Warn neighbours if needed
  • Tell us about parking and access

For businesses and landlords in Gibraltar

Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.

If you manage or own a block in Gibraltar, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.

What it might be made of

Floor tiles

The adhesive underneath sometimes needs its own approach.

Asbestos cement

Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.

Options to consider in Gibraltar

HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and the waste still has to go to a permitted site with the right paperwork. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

Why choose us

  • No removal until we know what it is
  • Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
  • Covering London and the South East
  • Samples analysed by an accredited laboratory

Read our prices page or published price ranges.

What’s included, and what isn’t

Before you book, note that:

  • Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
  • Making good is normally a separate job
  • Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

What we deal with

  • Soffits (cement)
  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Asbestos cement sheets
  • Bitumen roof felt
  • Water tanks
  • Artex and textured coatings
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Flue pipes
  • Panels and boards

DIY and asbestos

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Gibraltar: your questions answered

How far is Gibraltar from London?

We cover Gibraltar, about 40 miles from central London.

Is asbestos common in Gibraltar homes?

Any home in Gibraltar built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you work in Gibraltar?

We do: Gibraltar is within the area we cover in Buckinghamshire. Share the postcode and a short description for a quote.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we will arrange a visit.

What happens to the waste?

It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note as your record.

Could my home contain asbestos?

You can’t tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.

How can I get a price?

Just ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Include the postcode, a description and photos.

What happens next

File the waste paperwork safely: it shows the asbestos was disposed of legally.

To avoid problems in future:

  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
  • Tell us about any previous survey
  • Send photos of the material and the access

Don’ts

Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

  • 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
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
