Asbestos removal in Snagshall
Asbestos removal near Snagshall
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 jobs include debris left from a previous job and garage roof sheets, involving cement roof sheets, water tanks and cement soffits.
In towns and villages like Snagshall, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
After the job
If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.
After we have finished:
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
What to avoid
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.

Common questions in Snagshall
Do older homes in Snagshall have asbestos?
If your home in Snagshall was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you can’t tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover small places like Snagshall?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings typically aren’t licensed.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.

Typical removal jobs in Snagshall
Not all asbestos materials are equal: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, which is why that work is licensed.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Cement water tanks in lofts
- Cement flues and gutters
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
Older buildings in Snagshall, near The Parish Church of St James or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so materials are identified first.
