After the job
Making good, such as a new roof or ceiling, is generally a separate job, so plan it in advance.
After we’ve finished:
- File the consignment note
- Let us know where we can park
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
What to avoid
Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Questions from Queen Street
Do you come out to small villages like Queen Street?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do older homes in Queen Street have asbestos?
If your home in Queen Street was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
It doesn’t always have to come out: material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.

If you run a business from older premises in Queen Street, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
How we price asbestos removal
Prices vary with:

Typical removal jobs in Queen Street
Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so pre-2000 buildings across Kent may contain it.
You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Cement flues and gutters
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Finds during refurbishment
- Cement water tanks in lofts
In a school like Paddock Wood Primary School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use.
What to look for in a quote
- What paperwork you get
- What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof
- Which laboratory analyses samples
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
Can I do it myself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
Good to know
We’re upfront about what’s included:
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

- Panels and boards
