Typical removal jobs in Hammer Bottom
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so buildings across Surrey built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
People typically contact us about one of these:
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Artex before plastering
- Old flues
For non-domestic buildings like Woolmer Hill School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.

Weighing up your options
Should it come out? 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. 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.
