How asbestos removal works in Ham
If your builder has found suspect material in Ham, work should stop there and people kept out. We can test it and, if needed, plan its removal. From old flues and textured coatings, we deal with cement soffits, cement roof sheets and floor tiles.
In towns and villages like Ham, outbuildings are often only reachable through a house or lane, so we plan how to get the waste out. Clear answers come first: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

Afterwards
If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, because the plan may need to change.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
- Send photos of the material and the access
- File the consignment note
Avoid these
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
What it costs
These are the main things that affect the price of asbestos removal:
- How easy it is to reach
- How many samples are needed
- Travel and parking
- The type of material and its condition
Doing several things in one visit can help, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.

DIY and asbestos
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
What’s included, and what is not
Before you book, note that:
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
- We do not remove anything until it’s been identified
- Making good is normally a separate job
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.
Common materials
- Artex and textured coatings
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Soffits (cement)
- Garage and shed roofs
- Panels and boards
- Water tanks
- Gutters and downpipes
- Flue pipes
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Bitumen roof felt

A closer look at the materials
Water tanks and flues
Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.
Responsibilities for owners
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
