How asbestos removal works in Paynes Green
We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, so fibre release stays as low as possible. People often contact us about materials found mid-project and sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos, involving cement soffits, flue pipes and cement roof sheets.
In a village like Paynes Green, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Common questions in Paynes Green
Do you cover Paynes Green from London?
Paynes Green is about 28 miles from central London, well within our area.
Could my house in Paynes Green contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
If it hasn’t been identified, yes. The removal method depends on the material.
Where does the asbestos go?
It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note as your record.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
Do I need to move out?
It depends on the job: outdoor jobs do not normally affect you. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE advises the public not to try, and higher-risk materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
What we deal with in Paynes Green
Damage from DIY, storms or accidents can make removal necessary, especially if broken material is lying around.
Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
Landlords near Ockley station often time removal for when a property is empty.

Doing it yourself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.

Removing asbestos before building work avoids stopping the job halfway, when everything has to wait for it to be dealt with. Our quotes are clear about VAT.
What you get
- Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
- Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
- Clear written quotes
- Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone

Materials, one by one
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.
Bitumen and felt
We remove them without cutting with power tools.

Prices vary with:
- How much there is
- How much waste there is
- The survey scope
- The category of work
There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.
Photos that help

Once we’re done:
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Keep children and pets away on the day
Things not to do
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste.
