Asbestos removal near Middle Barton
A closer look at the materials
Bitumen and felt
We remove them without cutting with power tools.
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.
About our asbestos removal in Middle Barton
Once the material is out, we clean up and bag or wrap the waste, with a consignment note for your records. Whether it’s finds during refurbishment and cement water tanks in lofts, we cover textured coatings, floor tiles and cement roof sheets and more.
In Middle Barton, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Responsibilities for owners
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
If your business premises in Middle Barton were built before 2000, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
DIY and asbestos
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Questions from Middle Barton
Do you come out to small villages like Middle Barton?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you cover Middle Barton and the area around Heyford station?
Yes, we cover Middle Barton and the area towards Heyford station, about 2.9 miles east.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE’s advice is not to do it yourself, and higher-risk materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then get advice.
Where does the asbestos go?
It goes to a permitted site, properly packaged, with a registered carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The removal method depends on the material.

Afterwards
If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.
Once we are done:
- File the consignment note
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Let us know where we can park
- Share any survey or test results
What to avoid
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste.
Do not let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.
Choosing the right option
DIY removal might look cheaper, but HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and disposal still has to be done properly. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
