Park Town questions
Do you cover Park Town and the area around Oxford station?
Yes. Oxford station is about 0.9 miles south-west of Park Town, and we cover both.
Could my house in Park Town contain asbestos?
Any home in Park Town built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
What happens to the waste?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
Can I stay at home during removal?
That depends: outdoor jobs do not typically affect you. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we’ve finished.
How much does asbestos removal cost in Park Town?
Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. Every job gets a written quote.
What does licensed work mean?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.

A closer look at the materials
Bitumen and felt
They’re removed by hand.
Water tanks and flues
Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.
What we deal with in Park Town
Not all asbestos materials are equal: lagging and insulating board release fibres much more easily than asbestos cement, so their removal is licensed.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Old waste on site
- Artex before plastering
- Cement water tanks in lofts
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
Landlords near Oxford station often time removal for when a property is empty.
