Your questions about asbestos removal in Littlemore
How far is Littlemore from London?
Littlemore is about 51 miles from central London, well within our area.
Could my house in Littlemore contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we will arrange to see it.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
How much does asbestos removal cost in Littlemore?
Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. Every job gets a written quote.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.
What if the weather’s bad?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
Not always. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed work; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.
Weighing up your options
Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and won’t be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is usually right. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.
Why choose us
- Clear written quotes
- Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
- No removal until we know what it is

What happens next
Making good, such as a new roof or ceiling, is typically a separate job, so plan it before the removal date.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Book the replacement before removal
Things not to do
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
For landlords, agents and businesses
