Asbestos removal for Oxted

On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, then keep the material damp throughout. We keep the work area clear of other people while we work, so please keep children and pets away. Outdoor removal in Oxted is planned to finish in daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:20pm.

Asbestos removal in Oxted
Higher-risk materials such as pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, which must be carried out by a contractor holding an HSE licence. We will tell you if your job in Oxted falls into that category. We often deal with textured coatings, flue pipes and gutters and downpipes, and people normally contact us about asbestos found during building work and floor tiles before a new floor.
In a smaller place like Oxted, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, reached through gardens and drives. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Where asbestos turns up
Sometimes damage forces the issue.
These are some of the things we deal with in Oxted:
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
- Debris left from a previous job
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
- Artex before plastering
Older buildings in Oxted, near St Agatha's Hall or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal.
