Asbestos removal in Priestwood
You don’t always have to remove asbestos. If it’s sound and not in the way, it may be better left, and we will tell you honestly when that is the case. From old cold water tanks and Artex before plastering, we deal with floor tiles, flue pipes and gutters and downpipes.
In a smaller place like Priestwood, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, reached through gardens and drives. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Helpful guides
Your questions about asbestos removal in Priestwood
Do you cover Priestwood from London?
We cover Priestwood, about 29 miles from central London.
Do older homes in Priestwood have asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Priestwood can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
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.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material. To do that, call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
What it might be made of
Water tanks and flues
A Gas Safe engineer disconnects any gas appliance first.
Textured coatings
Taking the boards down can be an alternative.
What happens next
Any asbestos left elsewhere should stay on record, for anyone working there later.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Book the replacement before removal
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
Things not to do
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Responsibilities for owners
For managing agents and freeholders in Priestwood, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Priestwood, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

Can I do it myself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
