About our asbestos removal in Pitland Street
Removal is planned, not improvised: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified. Typical materials include water tanks, gutters and downpipes and cement roof sheets, and people normally contact us about sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos and debris left from a previous job.
In places like Pitland Street, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Pitland Street
Do you work near Gomshall station?
Yes. Gomshall station is about 2.7 miles north-west of Pitland Street, and we cover both.
Is asbestos common in Pitland Street homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
