How asbestos removal works in Redlands
Found asbestos during building work in Redlands? Work should stop there and people kept out. We will identify it and plan what happens next. Typical jobs include asbestos found during building work and outbuildings with cement roofs, including textured coatings, flue pipes and cement roof sheets.
Rural removal near Redlands can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Common questions in Redlands
Do you come out to small villages like Redlands?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Could my house in Redlands contain asbestos?
Any home in Redlands built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is normally needed.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.

Where asbestos turns up
Old materials break down over time: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is often when people decide to remove them.
Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:
- Old cold water tanks
- Garage roof sheets
- Finds during refurbishment
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
In older buildings across Redlands, asbestos may be in later additions, so we identify materials before planning removal.
What your quote should include
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- Any exclusions
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
- What paperwork you get
What it might be made of
Floor tiles
Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with sanders or grinders.
Water tanks and flues
Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.
Responsibilities for owners
For managing agents and freeholders in Redlands, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Limits to be aware of
Here’s what asbestos removal covers, and what it doesn’t:
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
- Some jobs must be notified first, so the timing needs planning
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Common materials
- Bitumen roof felt
- Flue pipes
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Water tanks
- Artex and textured coatings
- Garage and shed roofs
- Gutters and downpipes
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Soffits (cement)
- Panels and boards
After the job
If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.
Going forward:
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Book the replacement before removal
- File the consignment note
Things not to do
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.
