About our asbestos removal in Sevenscore
Before removal, the material has to be identified. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, since the right method depends on what it is. People often contact us about old floor tiles and black adhesive and old cold water tanks, including gutters and downpipes, floor tiles and cement roof sheets.
Rural removal near Sevenscore can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so you know where you stand.

Keeping things safe:
- Tell us about parking and access
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Book the replacement before removal
Avoid these
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

FAQs for Sevenscore
Do you cover Sevenscore from London?
Sevenscore is about 63 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do older homes in Sevenscore have asbestos?
If your home in Sevenscore was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
What does removal cost?
There’s no fixed price: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.
Do you work in Sevenscore?
Yes. We cover Sevenscore and the surrounding area as part of Kent. Send us the postcode for a quote.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.
What we deal with in Sevenscore
Sometimes damage forces the issue.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Garage roofs and whole garages
- Cement water tanks in lofts
- Old flues
- Finds during refurbishment
Older buildings in Sevenscore, near St Mary or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so materials are identified first.

- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
