Materials we deal with

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.

Bitumen and felt

Bitumen felts can contain asbestos, which is generally well bound.

DIY and asbestos

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

Common questions in Linchmere

Could my house in Linchmere contain asbestos?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

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

Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?

Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.

Can you help with a shop or office?

Yes. Send us the details of the premises.

Can you quote from photos?

Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.

What if the weather’s bad?

That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.

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.

Weighing up your options

DIY removal might look cheaper, but HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and the waste still has to go to a permitted site with the right paperwork. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
