DIY and asbestos
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Questions from Sandleheath
Is asbestos common in Sandleheath homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover small places like Sandleheath?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
What does removal cost?
Every job is priced individually: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
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. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
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.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
Prices and what affects them
Every quote reflects:
- Licensed or non-licensed
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- The quantity or area
- How easy it is to reach
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.
What to photograph
Before you send photos, a few tips:
- A clear close-up
- A photo of the whole area
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- Street parking nearby

For businesses and landlords in Sandleheath
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Materials we deal with
Bitumen and felt
They’re removed by hand.
Water tanks and flues
Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.
How it works
Our team uses disposable coveralls and respiratory protection, and keep everyone else out of the work area. Parking close by makes the day easier, so let us know about any restrictions. In winter, the light goes in Sandleheath by about 4:05pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.
- Describe the material and send pictures
- 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
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure we can get to the area
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere

Where asbestos turns up
Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: anything the work would disturb should be dealt with first.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Old waste on site
- Asbestos garages
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Materials found mid-project
In older properties in Sandleheath, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we identify materials before planning removal.
