About our asbestos removal in Kitwood

Asbestos removal in Kitwood covers homes, rental property and workplaces: garage roofs, flues, water tanks, Artex and floor tiles among them. Each job follows HSE guidance, and the waste goes to a permitted site. People often contact us about loft water tanks and textured coatings, including floor tiles, water tanks and cement roof sheets.

In areas like Kitwood, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, where access across fields or yards needs planning. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, for your records.

What affects the price in Kitwood

The biggest factors in the price are:

  • How easy it is to reach
  • Material and condition
  • The category of work
  • How much there is

Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

Photos that help

Photo tips:

  • Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
  • A rough size or measurement
  • A clear close-up
  • Labels, if any

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos and the postcode: fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.

Should you do it yourself?

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Choosing the right option

Sealing or enclosing is sometimes possible, but the asbestos is still there and needs recording for future work. Every quote says whether VAT is included.

What it might be made of

Floor tiles

Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with sanders or grinders.

Water tanks and flues

Tanks and flues are disconnected first, then removed with minimal breakage.

Duty holders and landlords in Kitwood

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

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

What happens next

File the waste paperwork safely: it shows the asbestos was disposed of legally.

Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:

  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
  • File the consignment note
  • Let neighbours know if work is near them

Avoid these

Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris.

Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
