Asbestos removal for Kingsfold properties

In homes, in Kingsfold as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. HSE treats work on these as non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed in most cases, which still means proper controls. People often contact us about vinyl and thermoplastic tiles and textured coatings, involving cement soffits, cement roof sheets and floor tiles.

In Kingsfold, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so the route is planned in advance. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so you know where you stand.

Common questions in Kingsfold

Do you work on properties in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?

Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

Do you come out to small villages like Kingsfold?

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.

How much does asbestos removal cost in Kingsfold?

Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. Every job gets a written quote.

Can I remove asbestos myself?

HSE advises the public not to try, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.

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.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

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

How we work

Waste is double-bagged or wrapped in heavy polythene and labelled as we go, then loaded for disposal at a permitted site. If anything unexpected turns up, we stop and talk to you before carrying on. Late-December sunset in Kingsfold is about 3:55pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

  1. Get in touch with the details of the job
  2. We check whether it’s licensed, notifiable or non-licensed work
  3. We agree a date and any notification needed
  4. On the day we set up, remove and bag the material
  5. The waste goes to a permitted site with a consignment note

Preparing for the visit

A closer look at the materials

Water tanks and flues

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

Insulating board and lagging

Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Kingsfold

Damage from DIY, storms or accidents can make removal necessary.

Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:

  • Floor tiles before a new floor
  • Old cold water tanks
  • Garage roofs and whole garages
  • Cement flues and gutters

If you let property near Warnham station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.

What to look for in a quote

  • That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
  • What isn’t included
  • Whether the job needs notifying
  • If the price includes VAT

What to check before you book

What affects the price in Kingsfold

The cost depends on:

  • The survey scope
  • Licensed or non-licensed
  • Location, parking and any London charges
  • Waste quantity and disposal

A price that looks too good to be true often is: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

Sending photos

Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:

  • Street parking nearby
  • The access route
  • Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
  • A photo of the whole area

If you have a survey or test result, include it when you fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749; it helps us quote accurately.

After the job

Replacement work is normally separate, so plan it in advance.

If asbestos stays in the building:

  • Tell us about any previous survey
  • Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
  • Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property

Things not to do

Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.

Limits to be aware of

We’re upfront about what’s included:

  • Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
  • Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
  • Some jobs must be notified first, which affects the start date

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

Materials we see

  • Asbestos cement sheets
  • Artex and textured coatings
  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Panels and boards
  • Water tanks
  • Bitumen roof felt
  • Soffits (cement)
  • Flue pipes

Service details

Options to consider in Kingsfold

Should it come out? Sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. When comparing quotes, check what’s included: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.

Why us?

  • Accredited laboratory results
  • Clear advice on your options
  • Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
  • Records for your files

Responsibilities for owners

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.

Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
