To avoid problems in future:
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Share any survey or test results

Asbestos removal near Great Stonar
Removal is not always the answer. If it’s sound and not in the way, it may be better left, and we’ll tell you honestly when that’s the case. Common materials are cement soffits, water tanks and gutters and downpipes, and people generally contact us about vinyl and thermoplastic tiles and cement flues and gutters.
In areas like Great Stonar, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, where access across fields or yards needs planning. We start with a clear answer: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
