Asbestos removal in Remenham Hill
If your builder has found suspect material in Remenham Hill, work should stop there and people kept out. We’ll identify it and plan what happens next. We often deal with floor tiles, cement soffits and cement roof sheets, and people typically contact us about vinyl and thermoplastic tiles and Artex ceilings before renovation.
In a village like Remenham Hill, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

Remenham Hill questions
Do you work on properties in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
How far is Remenham Hill from London?
Remenham Hill is about 34 miles from central London, well within our area.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then ask for advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE advises against removing asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials need a licensed contractor.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Can I stay at home during removal?
That depends: outdoor work rarely means leaving. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.
Options to consider in Remenham Hill
Very cheap quotes can be a warning sign: controls, equipment and legal disposal all cost money. Ask to see the waste paperwork. Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
What you get

What we deal with in Remenham Hill
Old materials break down over time: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is often when people decide to remove them.
In older properties, we often see:
- Garage roofs and whole garages
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Old cold water tanks
- Finds during refurbishment
Older buildings in Remenham Hill, near Church of St Nicholas or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal.
What your quote should include
- How fibres will be kept down
- What you will receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
- Suitable insurance for the work
- Whether VAT is included
How we work
Once removal is finished, we clean and check the area, and we talk you through what was done. Unexpected finds are discussed with you first before carrying on. Late-December sunset in Remenham Hill is about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.
- Tell us what needs removing and send photos
- We test the material if needed
- We plan the job and send a written quote
- On the day we set up, keep the material damp and remove it whole where we can
- We clean up, dispose of the waste legally and send the consignment note
How to prepare
- Move things out of the way carefully
- Let neighbours know if the work is near them
- Clear the way to the work area
How to get a quote
If you have a survey or test result, include it when you fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
Helpful guides
Afterwards
If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, for anyone working there later.

- Tell us about any previous survey
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Tell us about parking and access
What to avoid
Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
