Asbestos help in Littlestone-on-Sea

Materials we deal with

Floor tiles

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

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.

Asbestos removal in Littlestone-on-Sea

After removal, the work area is cleaned and the waste is double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken away, and you get the waste paperwork. We often deal with water tanks, cement soffits and flue pipes, and people normally contact us about old sheds and coal bunkers and vinyl and thermoplastic tiles.

In a village like Littlestone-on-Sea, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

Why people call us in Littlestone-on-Sea

These come up again and again:

  • Old cold water tanks
  • Artex before plastering
  • Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
  • Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles

In older properties in Littlestone-on-Sea, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we test before we plan.

How to choose an asbestos contractor

Your questions about asbestos removal in Littlestone-on-Sea

Do you cover small places like Littlestone-on-Sea?

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.

How far is Littlestone-on-Sea from London?

We cover Littlestone-on-Sea, about 58 miles from central London.

Where does the asbestos go?

It goes to a permitted site, properly packaged, with a registered carrier, and you get the consignment note.

Do you give written quotes?

Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.

Do you work in Littlestone-on-Sea?

Yes, Littlestone-on-Sea is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.

Do you work in flats?

Yes. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.

What does licensed work mean?

Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.

Do I need a test or a survey?

A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.

Looking after any asbestos that remains:

  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Photos of the material and the route in help
  • File the consignment note
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property

What to avoid

Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.

Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.

DIY and asbestos

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.

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
