Asbestos removal near Old Dean
How asbestos removal works in Old Dean
Before removal, the material has to be identified. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. Typical jobs include cement water tanks in lofts and flue pipes, gutters and downpipes, including cement soffits, flue pipes and textured coatings.
In areas like Old Dean, we often remove garage roofs and old sheds, reached through gardens and drives. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

Can I do it myself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
What happens next
Replacement work is normally separate, so plan it before the removal date.
Going forward:
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Book the replacement before removal
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Photos of the material and the route in help
What to avoid
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?
HSE advises the public not to try, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.
Materials we deal with
Textured coatings
Taking the boards down can be an alternative.
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.
What’s included, and what isn’t
A few things to be aware of:
- Some jobs must be notified first, so the timing needs planning
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is usually separate
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
