FAQs for Millbank
Do you cover small places like Millbank?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Is asbestos common in Millbank homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Millbank may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
How much does asbestos removal cost in Millbank?
It depends on the material, how much there is, its condition, access and disposal. Every job gets a written quote.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
What happens to the waste?
It goes to a permitted site, properly packaged, with a registered carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
Do you work in Millbank?
We do: Millbank is within the area we cover in Kent. Share the postcode and a short description and we will quote.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE advises against removing asbestos yourself. Licensed materials must only be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor.
About our asbestos removal in Millbank
In homes, in Millbank as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. Work on these is typically non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls. Whether it’s textured coatings and flue pipes, gutters and downpipes, we cover water tanks, flue pipes and gutters and downpipes and more.
In towns and villages like Millbank, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

DIY and asbestos
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
