How asbestos removal works in Goddard's Green
Removal is planned, not improvised: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified, before anyone starts. Whether it’s asbestos garages and loft water tanks, we deal with water tanks, gutters and downpipes and cement soffits.
In Goddard's Green, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. Clear answers come first: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Can I do it myself?
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.
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.
Common reasons for removal jobs in Goddard's Green
Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so pre-2000 buildings across West Berkshire may contain it.
People typically contact us about one of these:
- Artex before plastering
- Loft water tanks
- Cement flues and gutters
- Materials found mid-project
In a school like Garland Junior School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use.
Before booking anyone
- VAT, clearly stated
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed
FAQs for Goddard's Green
Is asbestos common in Goddard's Green homes?
Any home in Goddard's Green built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Goddard's Green from London?
Goddard's Green is about 42 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
You cannot tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Your options compared
Be wary of a price that seems too low: proper controls, protective equipment, a registered waste carrier and disposal cost money. Ask to see the waste paperwork. There’s no one-size price, as every job differs. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.
