How asbestos removal works in Hunton
We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, so fibre release stays as low as possible. Whether it’s debris left from a previous job and outbuildings with cement roofs, we cover textured coatings, flue pipes and gutters and downpipes.
In areas like Hunton, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

Materials, one by one
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.
Water tanks and flues
Tanks and flues are disconnected first, then removed with minimal breakage.
What we do and don’t cover
So you know what to expect:
- We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
- Some jobs must be notified first, so the timing needs planning
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Questions from Hunton
Do you cover Hunton and the area around Yalding station?
Yes. Yalding station is about 2.1 miles west of Hunton, and we cover both.
Is asbestos common in Hunton homes?
Any home in Hunton built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you work in Hunton?
Yes. We cover Hunton and the surrounding area as part of Kent. Send us the postcode for a quote.
Is asbestos dangerous?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We will identify it and advise on removal.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
What we deal with in Hunton
Old materials break down over time: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is often when people decide to remove them.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
- Artex before plastering
Older buildings in Hunton, near St Mary's Church or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we test before we plan.
Before you book anyone
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
- What is not included
- What you’ll receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
Which option is right?
Removing asbestos before building work avoids stopping the job halfway, rather than halting work when it’s found. Our quotes are clear about VAT, so you can compare like with like.
Why choose us
- Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
- Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
- Samples analysed by an accredited laboratory
