About our asbestos removal in Smallfield
Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If it hasn’t been tested, we sample it first, because the method depends on the material. From materials found mid-project and loft water tanks, we cover textured coatings, floor tiles and cement roof sheets.
In a smaller place like Smallfield, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, with access through the garden or drive. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

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.

Sometimes: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings normally aren’t licensed.
For businesses and landlords in Smallfield

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Smallfield must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

Helpful guides
Afterwards
Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you get the consignment note showing where the waste went.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Book the replacement before removal
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
Avoid these
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste.
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
Doing it yourself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Your options compared
Dealing with asbestos before work starts keeps the project on track, when everything has to wait for it to be dealt with. Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
