Asbestos removal near Mongewell
We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, so fibre release stays as low as possible. Whether it’s materials found mid-project and flue pipes, gutters and downpipes, we deal with flue pipes, textured coatings and gutters and downpipes.
In a village like Mongewell, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, where access across fields or yards needs planning. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

What it might be made of
Textured coatings
Taking the boards down can be an alternative.

Common questions in Mongewell
Do you come out to small villages like Mongewell?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Is asbestos common in Mongewell homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Mongewell may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Do you test before removing asbestos in Mongewell?
Unless it’s already been identified, yes: the way it’s removed depends on the material.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
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.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
What it costs
The price of asbestos removal depends mainly on:
- Travel and parking
- How easy it is to reach
- The survey scope
- The quantity or area
Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
Sending photos
For a quick quote, include:
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- Labels, if any
- A close-up from a safe distance
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
Unsure whether you need a test, a survey or removal? Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page, and we will recommend the right option.
Looking after things afterwards
File the waste paperwork safely: it shows the asbestos was disposed of legally.
Keeping things safe:
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Tell us about any previous survey
What to avoid
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.

Why people call us in Mongewell
Not all asbestos materials are equal: lagging and insulating board release fibres much more easily than asbestos cement, which is why that work is licensed.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to removal jobs:
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
- Loft water tanks
- Finds during refurbishment
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
In older buildings across Mongewell, asbestos may be in later additions, so we test before we plan.
