Asbestos removal in Skittle Green
About our asbestos removal in Skittle Green
We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, so fibre release stays as low as possible. Typical materials include cement soffits, water tanks and gutters and downpipes, and typical jobs are Artex ceilings before renovation and debris left from a previous job.
In Skittle Green, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so the route is planned in advance. Paperwork is part of every job, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Common questions in Skittle Green
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you cover Skittle Green from London?
We cover Skittle Green, about 37 miles from central London.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
When can you start?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.
Can asbestos be left in place?
Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Do you work in flats?
Yes, of course. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
What it costs
Prices vary with:
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- How much there is
- The type of material and its condition
- Access to the area
Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.
Helping us quote
The most useful photos are:
- An overall view
- Labels, if any
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- The parking area

Common reasons for removal jobs in Skittle Green
Old materials break down over time: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is often when people decide to remove them.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Finds during refurbishment
- Old waste on site
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Old cold water tanks
At a school such as Princes Risborough School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.
What to look for in a quote
- Where the waste goes, with paperwork
- The documents you will receive
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
- How fibres will be kept down
Can I do it myself?
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
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.
What’s included, and what is not
A few things to be aware of:
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before booking.
