Asbestos removal in Little Barrington
Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. Whether it’s old sheds and coal bunkers and Artex before plastering, we cover gutters and downpipes, cement roof sheets and cement soffits and more.
Rural removal near Little Barrington can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need.

Questions from Little Barrington
Do you come out to small villages like Little Barrington?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Could my house in Little Barrington contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Do I need to move out?
Outdoor work rarely affects you indoors. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
After we have finished in Little Barrington
If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.
Some practical advice:
- Let us know where we can park
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
What to avoid
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Duty holders and landlords in Little Barrington
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Little Barrington must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Materials we deal with
Floor tiles
Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with sanders or grinders.
Bitumen and felt
Bitumen felts can contain asbestos, typically tightly bound.
Can I do it myself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
Where asbestos turns up
Damage from DIY, storms or accidents can make removal necessary, especially if broken material is lying around.
Get advice if you are dealing with any of these:
- Cement flues and gutters
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Cement water tanks in lofts
At a school such as Burford School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.
