How asbestos removal works in Kingswood
Licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, which must be carried out by a contractor holding an HSE licence. We’ll tell you if your job in Kingswood falls into that category. People often contact us about garage roof sheets and old waste on site, including floor tiles, cement roof sheets and textured coatings.
Properties in places like Kingswood with larger plots can have more than one cement-roofed building. We identify materials before planning removal, as the right approach depends on the material.

Kingswood: your questions answered
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Do you cover Kingswood from London?
Kingswood is about 15 miles from central London, well within our area.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
How much does asbestos removal cost in Kingswood?
There’s no fixed price: the material, the amount, its condition, access and the waste all matter.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
The scope of asbestos removal
It’s worth knowing what asbestos removal does and doesn’t cover:
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is typically separate
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before booking.
Materials we see
- Garage and shed roofs
- Soffits (cement)
- Bitumen roof felt
- Artex and textured coatings
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Water tanks
- Panels and boards
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Flue pipes
- Gutters and downpipes
What happens next
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
Going forward:
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Tell us about parking and access
Don’ts
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Helpful guides
For businesses and landlords in Kingswood
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
If your business premises in Kingswood were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.

What we deal with in Kingswood
Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: anything the work would disturb should be dealt with first.
These come up again and again:
- Asbestos found during building work
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Old flues
- Textured coatings
At a school such as Tadworth Primary School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.
What to look for in a quote
- What you will receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
- Which areas and materials are covered
- Which laboratory analyses samples
- Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
Can I do it myself?
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors in the price are:
- What the material is and its state
- The survey scope

Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, send:
- Street parking nearby
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it

Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: don’t touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
