Asbestos removal near Nackington
Nackington: your questions answered
Could my house in Nackington contain asbestos?
If your home in Nackington was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
What does licensed work mean?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials need a licensed contractor.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.
Where does the asbestos go?
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.

What else we do in Nackington
For landlords, agents and businesses
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Nackington, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
After the job
Any asbestos left elsewhere should stay on record, for anyone working there later.
A few practical points:
- Let us know where we can park
- Book the replacement before removal
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Tell us about any previous survey
Things not to do
Don’t put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
What it costs
The cost depends on:
- The category of work
