How asbestos removal works in Newington
We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, to keep fibre release as low as possible. Whether it’s loft water tanks and finds during refurbishment, we cover flue pipes, cement roof sheets and floor tiles.
Properties in places like Newington with larger plots may have several outbuildings with cement roofs. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we will tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
Things not to do
Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
