Asbestos removal in Kevington

Removal is planned, not improvised: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified, before anyone starts. From vinyl and thermoplastic tiles and flue pipes, gutters and downpipes, we cover textured coatings, cement roof sheets and cement soffits and more.

Removal jobs around Kevington often mean working in flats, back gardens and tight spaces, so we plan parking, access and the route for the waste. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

Should you do it yourself?

A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Kevington

Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Kent Downs National Landscape?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

Do you cover Kevington and the area around St Mary Cray station?

Yes, we cover Kevington and the area towards St Mary Cray station, about 1.4 miles north-west.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.

What paperwork will I get?

Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.

Which asbestos work needs a licence?

Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings usually aren’t licensed.

What affects the price in Kevington

The cost depends on:

  • Location, parking and any London charges

What it might be made of

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement is the most common material we remove: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. It’s kept damp and removed whole where possible.

Water tanks and flues

Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.

Good to know

We are upfront about what’s included:

  • Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
  • Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
  • Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Responsibilities for owners

If your business premises in Kevington were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.

Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

What happens next

After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.

To avoid problems in future:

  • Let neighbours know if work is near them
  • Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
  • Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Book the replacement before removal

Avoid these

Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Do not let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
