Sevenoaks Weald questions
Do you cover small places like Sevenoaks Weald?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
How far is Sevenoaks Weald from London?
We cover Sevenoaks Weald, about 22 miles from central London.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
Sometimes: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings typically are not licensed.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Unless it’s already been identified, yes: the method depends on what the material is.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
Where does the asbestos go?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
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.
What does removal cost?
There’s no fixed price: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.
