Questions from Great Kimble
Do you cover Great Kimble from London?
Great Kimble is about 35 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you work on properties in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
Not always. Cement and textured coatings are generally non-licensed; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.
How can I get a price?
Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Is asbestos dangerous?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice.
What does removal cost?
Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. Every job gets a written quote.
What it might be made of
Textured coatings
We soften coatings and remove them wet, never sanding or dry scraping. Larger-scale steam or gel removal is notifiable non-licensed work.
Insulating board and lagging
Insulating board, lagging and sprayed coatings are licensed work in most cases.
Options to consider in Great Kimble
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 typically right. Every quote says whether VAT is included.

Where asbestos turns up
Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, which is why that work is licensed.
These come up again and again:
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Garage roof sheets
- Artex before plastering
For non-domestic buildings like Great Kimble Church of England School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.
Before you book anyone
- The documents you’ll receive
- VAT, clearly stated
- What category of work it is
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
Afterwards
If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, because the plan may need to change.
Keeping things safe:
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Tell us about any previous survey
Avoid these
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
