Asbestos removal in Guestling Green
Before removal, the material has to be identified. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. Typical jobs include old floor tiles and black adhesive and broken sheets in gardens, including cement roof sheets, flue pipes and gutters and downpipes.
Rural removal near Guestling Green can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

Materials we deal with
Asbestos cement
Cement products make up most removal jobs: roofs, gutters, flues and tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.
Water tanks and flues
Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.
Step by step
We wear disposable coveralls and suitable respirators, and nobody else enters the work area. On the day, we check the area and talk you through the plan first. We plan outdoor jobs in Guestling Green to finish before dark: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:15pm.
- Share photos, the postcode and any survey or test you have
- We confirm what the material is and what category of work it falls into
- We quote in writing, including the waste
- We set up, keep the material damp and take it out whole where we can
- We clean the area and send the consignment note
How to prepare
- Keep away from the material in the meantime
- Let us know if something’s broken
- Tell us about parking and access

Weighing up your options
Covering or sealing asbestos is sometimes an alternative to removal, but the asbestos is still there and needs recording for future work. Dealing with asbestos before building work is generally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.

How can I get a price?
Just call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
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, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
