Asbestos removal for Kingston Blount properties
Much of the asbestos found in homes is asbestos cement, textured coating or floor tiles. HSE treats work on these as non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed in most cases, which still means proper controls. From sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos and cement water tanks in lofts, we cover textured coatings, gutters and downpipes and floor tiles and more.
In places like Kingston Blount, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, where access across fields or yards needs planning. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

FAQs for Kingston Blount
Is asbestos common in Kingston Blount homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Kingston Blount may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do I need to move out?
Outdoor work rarely affects you indoors. Indoor work areas are sealed off and kept clear while the work is done.
Do you test before removing asbestos in Kingston Blount?
Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The removal method depends on the material.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
