For landlords, agents and businesses
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Hill Head must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

Which option is right?
Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and will not be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.

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
Cement products make up most removal jobs: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.
Prices and what affects them
The cost depends on:
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- How easy it is to reach
- How much there is
- What the material is and its state
What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.
Photos that help
The most useful photos are:
- A picture of the whole area
- An idea of size
- Visible markings
- Cracks or breaks
Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: send them through our contact page.
What happens next
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
Some practical advice:
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Photos of the material and the route in help
Don’ts
Don’t put asbestos in household bins or skips.

Common questions in Hill Head
Do you cover Hill Head from London?
Hill Head is about 68 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you come out to small villages like Hill Head?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
What if the weather’s bad?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Make the area safe first: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is generally needed.
The scope of asbestos removal
To be clear about the scope:
- Making good is normally a separate job
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
- We do not remove anything until it’s been identified
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.
