Asbestos removal near Lower Eashing
How asbestos removal works in Lower Eashing
Before removal, the material has to be identified. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. We often deal with cement roof sheets, water tanks and gutters and downpipes, and people typically contact us about broken sheets in gardens and garage roofs and whole garages.
In a village like Lower Eashing, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, where access across fields or yards needs planning. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, for your records.

Lower Eashing: your questions answered
Do you work on properties in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you come out to small villages like Lower Eashing?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
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.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Can I stay at home during removal?
That depends: outdoor work rarely means leaving. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we have finished.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.
