About our asbestos removal in Hog Hatch
Found asbestos during building work in Hog Hatch? Stop work in that area and keep people away. We will identify it and plan what happens next. Typical jobs include old sheds and coal bunkers and old floor tiles and black adhesive, involving cement soffits, gutters and downpipes and textured coatings.
In a smaller place like Hog Hatch, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, reached through gardens and drives. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Hog Hatch must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
What it might be made of
Insulating board and lagging
It needs an HSE-licensed contractor and 14 days’ notice.
Textured coatings
We soften coatings and remove them wet, never sanding or dry scraping. Large-scale steam or gel removal must be notified.
Doing it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

What we deal with in Hog Hatch
Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so buildings across Surrey built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
These come up again and again:
- Old waste on site
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Garage roofs and whole garages
- Finds during refurbishment
At a school such as Folly Hill Infant School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.
Before booking anyone
- Which laboratory analyses samples
- What category of work it is
- What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof
- How fibres will be kept down
After we have finished in Hog Hatch
Replacement work is normally separate, so plan it in advance.
A few practical points:
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
What to avoid
Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris.
