Asbestos removal in Haylands
Common questions in Haylands
Could my house in Haylands contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work near Ryde St Johns Road station?
Yes. Ryde St Johns Road station is about 0.9 miles north-east of Haylands, and we cover both.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
It depends on the material and the job. Cement and textured coatings are typically non-licensed; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area in the job.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The removal method depends on the material.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Do I need to move out?
That depends: outdoor jobs don’t usually affect you. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we have finished.
What happens to the waste?
It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note as your record.
How asbestos removal works in Haylands
In homes, in Haylands as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. HSE treats work on these as non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed in most cases, which still means proper controls. People often contact us about debris left from a previous job and Artex ceilings before renovation, involving textured coatings, water tanks and gutters and downpipes.
Homes in Haylands with bigger gardens may have several outbuildings with cement roofs, which can often be dealt with together. Clear answers come first: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Weighing up your options
Dealing with asbestos before work starts keeps the project on track, when everything has to wait for it to be dealt with. Sometimes a test shows removal isn’t needed, because the material is clear.
Why people choose us
- Legal disposal, with paperwork
- Samples analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
- Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
See our prices page or the cost guide.
How we price asbestos removal
These are the main things that affect the price of asbestos removal:
- How much there is
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- Parking and access charges
- Access to the area
Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.

Helpful guides
What it might be made of
Floor tiles
Black bitumen adhesive may need treating separately.
Textured coatings
Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.
Looking after things afterwards
If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
What to avoid
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of.
What we do and do not cover
Some limits to bear in mind:
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is usually separate
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we deal with
- Artex and textured coatings
- Bitumen roof felt
- Garage and shed roofs
- Panels and boards
- Gutters and downpipes
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Flue pipes
- Water tanks
- Floor tiles and adhesive

Typical removal jobs in Haylands
Most removal happens because building work would disturb asbestos: anything the work would disturb should be dealt with first.
These come up again and again:
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Old waste on site
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Cement water tanks in lofts
In older properties in Haylands, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we test before we plan.

DIY and asbestos
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
