What it might be made of
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.
Floor tiles
Black bitumen adhesive may need treating separately.
Weighing up your options
What kind of work is it? It depends on what the material is and what’s being done. See our guide to the three categories. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

FAQs for Otterbourne
How far is Otterbourne from London?
We cover Otterbourne, about 64 miles from central London.
Could my house in Otterbourne contain asbestos?
If your home in Otterbourne was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE advises against removing asbestos yourself. Licensed materials must only be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
When can you start?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
