Asbestos removal for Seasalter properties

Before removal, the material has to be identified. If it hasn’t been tested, we sample it first, since the right method depends on what it is. Common materials are floor tiles, flue pipes and water tanks, and people generally contact us about sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos and debris left from a previous job.

In a village like Seasalter, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, where access across fields or yards needs planning. Every job comes with paperwork, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

Common questions in Seasalter

How far is Seasalter from London?

We cover Seasalter, about 48 miles from central London.

Do you cover Seasalter and the area around Whitstable station?

Yes, we cover Seasalter and the area towards Whitstable station, about 1.8 miles north-east.

Do you test before removing asbestos in Seasalter?

If it hasn’t been identified, yes. The removal method depends on the material.

Can you quote from photos?

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.

What does licensed work mean?

It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.

Do I need to move out?

That depends: outdoor work rarely means leaving. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.

Afterwards

Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.

Staying safe afterwards:

Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
Let neighbours know if work is near them
Let us know where we can park

What to avoid

Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.

Materials, one by one

Water tanks and flues

Tanks and flues are disconnected first, then removed with minimal breakage.

Textured coatings

Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.

What it costs

Our quotes take into account:

The quantity or area
Travel and parking
How much waste there is
How easy it is to reach

What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.

What to photograph

Photos often save us a visit:

Where we could park
Damaged areas
The access route
An idea of size

We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. To start, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.

Can I do it myself?

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

Step by step

Once removal is finished, we clean and check the area, and we talk you through what was done. We keep the work area clear of other people while we work, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere. We plan outdoor jobs in Seasalter to finish before dark: in late December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:15pm.

Tell us what needs removing and send photos
If it hasn’t been identified, we sample it first
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
