Oare questions
Do you cover small places like Oare?

Can you help with a shop or office?
We do. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE advises the public not to try, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
Do you cover Oare?
We do: our area includes Oare and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos and we’ll quote.
Asbestos removal in Oare
Once the material is out, we clean up and bag or wrap the waste, with a consignment note for your records. From broken sheets in gardens and old sheds and coal bunkers, we cover textured coatings, floor tiles and cement roof sheets and more.
In areas like Oare, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. Clear answers come first: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

How we price asbestos removal
When we quote, we look at:
- Parking and access charges
- The category of work
- How much there is
- Disposal costs
Access makes a big difference to cost, so tell us about access.
Photos that help
When you send photos, these help most:
- Where we could park
- An idea of size
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- A picture of the whole area
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos and the postcode: ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
Afterwards
Making good, such as a new roof or ceiling, is generally a separate job, so plan it in advance.
Some practical advice:
- Let us know where we can park
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Share any survey or test results
Don’ts
Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
The process
Materials are released carefully and removed whole where possible, never broken up, dropped or cut with power tools. While we work, the area stays out of bounds. Outdoor removal in Oare is planned to finish in daylight: that means by about 3:50pm in December, or about 9:15pm in June.

- We check whether it’s licensed, notifiable or non-licensed work
- We book the work and notify if required
- On the day we set up, remove and bag the material
- The waste goes to a permitted site with a consignment note
Before we arrive
- Tell us about anything that’s already damaged
- Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
- Find any old asbestos reports

Good to know
Here’s what asbestos removal covers, and what it does not:
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we see
- Garage and shed roofs
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Panels and boards
- Artex and textured coatings
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Bitumen roof felt
- Gutters and downpipes
- Flue pipes
- Soffits (cement)
- Water tanks
Which option is right?
Be wary of a price that seems too low: controls, equipment and legal disposal all cost money. Always ask for the consignment note. Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
Why choose us
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
- We identify first and remove only what needs removing
- Accredited laboratory results
- Waste paperwork for every removal
Read our prices page or the cost guide.
Materials, one by one
Bitumen and felt
Bitumen felts can contain asbestos, generally tightly bound.
Floor tiles
Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with power tools.
Common reasons for removal jobs in Oare
Not all asbestos materials are equal: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, so their removal is licensed.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Cement water tanks in lofts
- Old waste on site
- Cement flues and gutters
- Artex ceilings before renovation
In older properties in Oare, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we identify materials before planning removal.
Before booking anyone
- Suitable insurance for the work
- How fibres will be kept down
- If the price includes VAT
- That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
Responsibilities for owners
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
