About our asbestos removal in Ickenham
Found asbestos during building work in Ickenham? Stop work in that area and keep people away. We can test it and, if needed, plan its removal. Typical jobs include Artex ceilings before renovation and flue pipes, gutters and downpipes, involving flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and textured coatings.
In towns and villages like Ickenham, outbuildings are often only reachable through a house or lane, which affects how the waste is carried out. We identify materials before planning removal, as the right approach depends on the material.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?

Should you do it yourself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
What it might be made of
Floor tiles
Black bitumen adhesive may need treating separately.
Textured coatings
Taking the boards down can be an alternative.
Responsibilities for owners
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.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
Why people call us in Ickenham
Most removal happens because building work would disturb asbestos: whatever the work will touch should come out first.
Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:
- Debris left from a previous job
- Materials found mid-project
- Loft water tanks
- Artex ceilings before renovation
In older properties in Ickenham, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we identify materials before planning removal.
Questions to ask before you book
- If the price includes VAT
- What paperwork you get
- Which areas and materials are covered
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
How we price asbestos removal
Prices vary with:
- Parking and access charges
