- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Let us know where we can park
What to avoid
Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.
Don’t put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Asbestos removal for Kemsley properties
You don’t always have to remove asbestos. If it’s sound and not in the way, it may be better left, and we’ll say so. We often deal with textured coatings, water tanks and flue pipes, and people normally contact us about asbestos garages and materials found mid-project.
Properties in places like Kemsley with larger plots can have more than one cement-roofed building, which can often be dealt with together. We identify materials before planning removal, as the right approach depends on the material.

Doing it yourself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
