Asbestos removal for Hoppers Corner
About our asbestos removal in Hoppers Corner
Before removal, the material has to be identified. If it hasn’t been tested, we sample it first, since the right method depends on what it is. Whether it’s garage roofs and whole garages and old sheds and coal bunkers, we deal with flue pipes, cement roof sheets and cement soffits and more.
Rural removal near Hoppers Corner can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. We start with a clear answer: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

Where asbestos turns up
Materials deteriorate with age: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is when removal comes up.
You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Garage roof sheets
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
For non-domestic buildings like Barming Primary School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.

What else we do in Hoppers Corner
For landlords, agents and businesses
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Hoppers Corner must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
What’s included, and what isn’t
The usual limits are:
- Making good is normally a separate job
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
- Some jobs must be notified first, so the timing needs planning
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
What we deal with
- Bitumen roof felt
- Flue pipes
- Panels and boards
- Water tanks
- Soffits (cement)
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Artex and textured coatings
- Garage and shed roofs

- Asbestos cement sheets

Hoppers Corner questions
Do you cover Hoppers Corner from London?
We cover Hoppers Corner, about 29 miles from central London.
Do you come out to small villages like Hoppers Corner?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
What does licensed work mean?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
If it hasn’t been identified, yes. The right method depends on what the material is.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Do I need to move out?
For outdoor jobs, you can generally stay put. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then get in touch and we will advise.
Should you do it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Afterwards
Any asbestos left elsewhere should stay on record, for anyone working there later.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
Don’ts
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
