How asbestos removal works in Mickleham
In homes, in Mickleham as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. HSE treats work on these as non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed in most cases, which still means proper controls. From old sheds and coal bunkers and cement water tanks in lofts, we deal with flue pipes, floor tiles and water tanks.
In areas like Mickleham, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, where access across fields or yards needs planning. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, for your records.

Your options compared
Sealing or enclosing is sometimes possible, but the asbestos is still there and needs recording for future work. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

Why people call us in Mickleham
Most removal happens because building work would disturb asbestos: whatever the work will touch should come out first.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Materials found mid-project
- Debris left from a previous job
- Old cold water tanks
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
In a school like St Michael's CofE Aided Infant School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use.

Mickleham: your questions answered
Do you come out to small villages like Mickleham?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.
What does licensed work mean?
It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Do you work in flats?
Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
Sometimes: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings generally aren’t licensed.
What happens to the waste?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
DIY and asbestos
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
A closer look at the materials
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.
Textured coatings
Taking the boards down can be an alternative.
What we do and don’t cover
A few things to be aware of:
- We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
