Remenham questions

Do you come out to small villages like Remenham?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.

Could my house in Remenham contain asbestos?

If your home in Remenham was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you can’t tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.

How can I get a price?

Use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.

What if my house is newer?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.

Can you help with a shop or office?

Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.

Is asbestos removal licensed?

It varies: lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, while most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.

Can you quote from photos?

Many jobs can be quoted from photos, though some need a visit first.

How it works

Helpful guides

Should you do it yourself?

If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Why people call us in Remenham

Common situations in older properties include:

  • Cement flues and gutters
  • Cement water tanks in lofts
  • Artex before plastering
  • Garage roof sheets

For rentals close to Henley-On-Thames station, removal fits neatly between tenancies.

  • How fibres will be kept down
  • What is not included
  • Insurance appropriate to asbestos work

Water tanks and flues

Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.

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