Asbestos removal near Snargate

Licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, and has to be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. We will tell you if your job in Snargate falls into that category. Typical jobs include outbuildings with cement roofs and asbestos garages, involving cement roof sheets, cement soffits and flue pipes.

Rural removal near Snargate can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, for your records.

Common questions in Snargate

How far is Snargate from London?

Snargate is about 52 miles from central London, well within our area.

Do you work near Appledore (Kent) station?

Yes, we cover Snargate and the area towards Appledore (Kent) station, about 1.1 miles north-west.

What if my house is newer?

Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.

How do I get a quote?

Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is. To do that, use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.

Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?

HSE advises against removing asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials need a licensed contractor.

Can you help a business or landlord?

Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.

What’s the difference between a test and a survey?

A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

What does removal cost?

There is no fixed price: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.

Step by step

We start by setting up and segregating the work area, and keep the material wet as we work. We wear suitable protective equipment for the job, and keeps dust to a minimum. Outdoor removal in Snargate is planned to finish in daylight: that means by about 3:50pm in December, or about 9:15pm in June.

  1. Describe the material and send pictures
  2. We identify it if needed and plan the method
  3. You get a written quote, including waste disposal
  4. The material is removed safely
  5. The area is cleaned and you get the consignment note

Preparing for the visit

  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Let us know where we can park

Getting a price

We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. To start, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.

Helpful guides

Should you do it yourself?

A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.

Your options compared

Dealing with asbestos before work starts keeps the project on track, rather than halting work when it’s found. Access makes a big difference to cost, so tell us about access.

Duty holders and landlords in Snargate

Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Snargate, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

What happens next

File the waste paperwork safely: it shows the asbestos was disposed of legally.

After the job, keep these in mind:

  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • File the consignment note
  • Send photos of the material and the access
  • Keep children and pets away on the day

Avoid these

Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of.

Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Typical removal jobs in Snargate

  • Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes

In older buildings across Snargate, asbestos may be in later additions, so materials are identified first.
