About our asbestos removal in Pinkneys Green
If your builder has found suspect material in Pinkneys Green, stop work in that area and keep people away. We can test it and, if needed, plan its removal. Typical materials include floor tiles, water tanks and cement soffits, and people usually contact us about vinyl and thermoplastic tiles and broken sheets in gardens.
Properties in areas like Pinkneys Green with larger plots may have several outbuildings with cement roofs, which can often be dealt with together. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

What we deal with in Pinkneys Green
Most removal happens because building work would disturb asbestos: whatever the work will touch should come out first.
These are some of the things we deal with in Pinkneys Green:
- Materials found mid-project
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Artex before plastering
- Garage roofs and whole garages
Older buildings in Pinkneys Green, near Church of St. James the Less or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we test before we plan.

- Whether the job needs notifying
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Pinkneys Green must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Doing it yourself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
What’s included, and what isn’t
Before you book, note that:
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.

Common questions in Pinkneys Green
Do you cover Pinkneys Green and the area around Furze Platt station?
Yes, we cover Pinkneys Green and the area towards Furze Platt station, about 1.4 miles east.
Could my house in Pinkneys Green contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Do I need to move out?
That depends: outdoor jobs do not usually affect you. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we’ve finished.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.
Do you give written quotes?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
After we have finished in Pinkneys Green
If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, for anyone working there later.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- File the consignment note
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
What to avoid
Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
