Why people call us in Shottesbrooke
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so buildings across Windsor and Maidenhead built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Garage roofs and whole garages
- Old cold water tanks
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
In older buildings across Shottesbrooke, asbestos may be in later additions, so we identify materials before planning removal.
Before booking anyone
- Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
- The method and controls
- Which areas and materials are covered
- Suitable insurance for the work
Should you do it yourself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
What affects the price in Shottesbrooke
Every quote reflects:
- The type of material and its condition
- How much waste there is
- The size of the job
- The survey scope
Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
Sending photos
For a quick quote, include:
- A picture of the whole area
- Where we could park
- A rough size or measurement
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. To start, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
Materials we deal with
Bitumen and felt
They’re removed by hand.
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.
What happens
Our team uses disposable coveralls and respiratory protection, and nobody else enters the work area. When we are done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows. In winter, the light goes in Shottesbrooke by about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.
- Send us the postcode and photos
- We work out what category the work falls into
- We agree a date and any notification needed
- On the day we set up, remove and bag the material
- The waste goes to a permitted site with a consignment note
Before we arrive
- Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
- Mention any damage before we arrive
- Let us know where we can park

Duty holders and landlords in Shottesbrooke
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Shottesbrooke: your questions answered
Do you come out to small villages like Shottesbrooke?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Do older homes in Shottesbrooke have asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Shottesbrooke may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always: sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.
When can you start?
That depends on the work and current bookings. You will get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
What does licensed work mean?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Does weather affect the work?
It depends on the job: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Afterwards
Any asbestos left elsewhere should stay on record, so future trades know about it.
To avoid problems in future:
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Tell us about any previous survey
Things not to do
Do not let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of.
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
