How we price asbestos removal

The cost depends on:

  • Material and condition
  • Waste quantity and disposal
  • How much there is
  • Travel and parking

Dealing with asbestos before building work is generally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.

Sending photos

Photos often save us a visit:

  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • An idea of size
  • Visible markings
  • Damaged areas

If you have a survey or test result, include it when you call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form; it helps us quote accurately.

In Lickfold, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

How we work

We start by setting up and segregating the work area, then keep the material damp throughout. Before anything starts, we confirm the areas and materials with you, so there is no confusion. We plan outdoor jobs in Lickfold to finish before dark: in late December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:20pm.

  1. Send us the postcode and photos
  2. We work out what category the work falls into
  3. We agree a date and any notification needed
  4. We set up the work area and remove the material
  5. The waste goes to a permitted site with a consignment note

Getting ready

  • Tell us about anything that is already damaged
  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property

Common questions in Lickfold

Do you cover Lickfold and the area around Haslemere station?

Yes. Haslemere station is about 4.7 miles north of Lickfold, and we cover both.

Could my house in Lickfold contain asbestos?

It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Lickfold may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Does weather affect the work?

Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.

When can you start?

It depends on the job and our diary. We will give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.

How can I get a price?

Just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

Can I remove asbestos myself?

HSE advises against removing asbestos yourself. Licensed materials must only be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor.

How much does asbestos removal cost in Lickfold?

Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. We quote each job individually.

Can I stay at home during removal?

That depends: outdoor work rarely means leaving. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.

Doing it yourself?

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

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.

After the job

If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, so future trades know about it.

Going forward:

  • File the consignment note
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Photos of the material and the route in help
  • Tell us about any previous survey

Things not to do

Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.

If your business premises in Lickfold were built before 2000, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.

Why people call us in Lickfold

Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and insulating board release fibres much more easily than asbestos cement, which is why that work is licensed.

Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:

  • Loft water tanks
  • Old waste on site
  • Cement flues and gutters
  • Old floor tiles and black adhesive

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Where the waste goes, with paperwork
  • For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
  • How fibres will be kept down
