Asbestos removal for Payden Street properties

Once the material is out, we clean up and bag or wrap the waste, and you get the waste paperwork. People often contact us about cement water tanks in lofts and debris left from a previous job, including textured coatings, water tanks and cement soffits.

Rural removal near Payden Street can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

FAQs for Payden Street

How far is Payden Street from London?

We cover Payden Street, about 40 miles from central London.

Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Kent Downs National Landscape?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

What does removal cost?

Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. Every job gets a written quote.

How do I get a quote?

Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

What happens to the waste?

It goes to a permitted site, properly packaged, with a registered carrier, and you get the consignment note.

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.

  • Artex ceilings before renovation
  • Finds during refurbishment
  • Loft water tanks
  • Outbuildings with cement roofs

At a school such as The Lenham School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.

Choosing an asbestos contractor

What it might be made of

Bitumen and felt

Bitumen felts can contain asbestos, normally tightly bound.

Water tanks and flues

Tanks and flues are disconnected first, then removed with minimal breakage.

What happens next

Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.

Keeping things safe:

  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • File the consignment note
  • Share any survey or test results
  • Make sure pets and children are elsewhere

Don’ts

Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Can I do it myself?

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

Step by step

As each piece comes out, it’s bagged or wrapped and labelled, then loaded for disposal at a permitted site. We’ll tell you when we’ve finished and what you’ll receive afterwards. In winter, the light goes in Payden Street by about 3:50pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.
