Need asbestos removal in Newenden?
For landlords, agents and businesses
For managing agents and freeholders in Newenden, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
How asbestos removal works in Newenden
In homes, in Newenden as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. Work on these is usually non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls. Typical jobs include old flues and old cold water tanks, involving floor tiles, flue pipes and gutters and downpipes.
In a village like Newenden, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

How we price asbestos removal
Every quote reflects:
- How many samples are needed
- The quantity or area
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- Travel and parking
Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, because the material is clear.
Sending photos
When you send photos, these help most:
- The access route
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- Labels, if any
Every job is quoted in writing. Just use our quote form or call 07833 053 749 with the details.
Where asbestos turns up
Materials deteriorate with age: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is when removal comes up.
People usually contact us about one of these:
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Finds during refurbishment
- Cement water tanks in lofts
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
Older buildings in Newenden, near Parish Church of St Peter or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal.
What your quote should include
- Which areas and materials are covered
- Which laboratory analyses samples
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
- Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed

Helpful guides
Doing it yourself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
Afterwards
If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, because the plan may need to change.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Photos of the material and the route in help
Avoid these
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
What it might be made of
Floor tiles
Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with sanders or grinders.
Bitumen and felt
We remove them without cutting with power tools.
