Asbestos removal for Hare Hatch properties
Removal isn’t always the answer. If it’s sound and not in the way, it may be better left, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s old floor tiles and black adhesive and old flues, we deal with flue pipes, floor tiles and gutters and downpipes and more.
In Hare Hatch, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, for your records.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Selling or letting a property can prompt removal of obvious materials, although sound material can often stay.
Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:
- Old cold water tanks
- Outbuildings with cement roofs

If you let property near Wargrave station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.

It doesn’t always have to come out: material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.

It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
