Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors in the price are:
- The quantity or area
- The type of material and its condition
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- How much waste there is
A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

For businesses and landlords in Hadlow Down
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Common reasons for removal jobs in Hadlow Down
Damage from DIY, storms or accidents can make removal necessary, especially if broken material is lying around.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Common situations include:
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Old flues
In older buildings across Hadlow Down, asbestos may be in later additions, so materials are identified first.

Helpful guides
Hadlow Down: your questions answered
How far is Hadlow Down from London?
Hadlow Down is about 37 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you work on properties in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.
Do you give written quotes?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
Sometimes: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings usually are not licensed.
Can you help with a flat?
We do. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then ask for advice.
How much does asbestos removal cost in Hadlow Down?
Every job is priced individually: the material, the amount, its condition, access and the waste all matter.
Options to consider in Hadlow Down
Be wary of a price that seems too low: controls, equipment and legal disposal all cost money. Ask to see the waste paperwork. Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: scope, method, waste disposal and paperwork.
Why us?
- Accredited laboratory results
- Work done to the regulations
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
