About our asbestos removal in Nash
Removal isn’t always the answer. If it’s sound and not in the way, it may be better left, and we will say so. People often contact us about Artex before plastering and old flues, involving floor tiles, flue pipes and water tanks.
In Nash, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so the route is planned in advance. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

Where asbestos turns up
Materials deteriorate with age: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is when removal comes up.
These are some of the things we deal with in Nash:
- Loft water tanks
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
- Old flues
- Old waste on site
In older buildings across Nash, asbestos may be in later additions, so materials are identified first.
What your quote should include
- What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof
- What you will receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Whether the job needs notifying
For businesses and landlords in Nash
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Can I do it myself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Which option is right?
Remove, or leave and manage? Sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.

How we work
On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, then keep the material damp throughout. It helps if we can park nearby. Outdoor removal in Nash is planned to finish in daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:15pm.
- Describe the material and send pictures
- If it hasn’t been identified, we sample it first

Common questions in Nash
Do you cover Nash and the area around Adisham station?
Yes. Adisham station is about 3.7 miles south-west of Nash, and we cover both.
How far is Nash from London?
Nash is about 60 miles from central London, well within our area.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, so identifying it before work is important.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
What does removal cost?
Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. Every job gets a written quote.
