Asbestos removal for Ryarsh properties
Asbestos materials are kept wet, taken out whole where we can, and never cut with power tools, to keep fibre release as low as possible. From flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and loft water tanks, we deal with gutters and downpipes, floor tiles and water tanks and more.
Rural removal near Ryarsh can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

Common questions in Ryarsh
Do you come out to small villages like Ryarsh?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you cover Ryarsh from London?
We cover Ryarsh, about 25 miles from central London.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Can asbestos be left in place?
Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. To do that, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
Do you work in flats?
Yes, of course. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
Where asbestos turns up
Sometimes damage forces the issue.
In older properties, we often see:
- Old flues
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Finds during refurbishment
- Loft water tanks
In older buildings across Ryarsh, asbestos may be in later additions, so we test before we plan.
Questions to ask before you book
- The method and controls
- Whether the job needs notifying

- The documents you will receive
Prices and what affects them
The price of asbestos removal depends mainly on:
- The category of work
- Parking and access charges
- How many samples are needed

Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: scope, method, waste disposal and paperwork.
Photos that help
A few photos can save a site visit:
- How we’d reach it
- Visible markings
- The parking area
- Cracks or breaks
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.
What’s included, and what is not
So you know what to expect:
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
- Making good is normally a separate job
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Materials we see
- Flue pipes
- Artex and textured coatings
- Soffits (cement)
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Bitumen roof felt
- Water tanks
- Panels and boards

What happens next
Replacement work is normally separate, so plan it in advance.
Some practical advice:
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
Don’ts
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
DIY and asbestos
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
