About our asbestos removal in South Ascot

We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, to keep fibre release as low as possible. People often contact us about broken sheets in gardens and outbuildings with cement roofs, including floor tiles, gutters and downpipes and cement roof sheets.

In towns and villages like South Ascot, we often remove garage roofs and old sheds, with access through the garden or drive. Everything is explained in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Questions from South Ascot

Do you cover South Ascot from London?

South Ascot is about 26 miles from central London, well within our area.

Is asbestos common in South Ascot homes?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Can you quote from photos?

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we will arrange a visit.

Can asbestos go in my bin?

Never: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.

Will I get the price in writing?

Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.

Does someone need to be there?

We need access to every area involved in the job.

What if the weather’s bad?

Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.

How quickly can you come out?

Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.

For businesses and landlords in South Ascot

Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.

Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.

Should you do it yourself?

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.

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

How it works

We start by setting up and segregating the work area, and keep the material wet as we work. We will tell you when we’ve finished and what you’ll receive afterwards. We plan outdoor jobs in South Ascot to finish before dark: that means by about 3:55pm in December, or about 9:25pm in June.

  1. Describe the material and send pictures
  2. If it hasn’t been identified, we sample it first
  3. We plan the method, controls, waste and any notification, and send a quote
  4. On the day we set up, keep the material damp and remove it whole where we can
  5. We clean up, dispose of the waste legally and send the consignment note

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Move things out of the way carefully

Don’ts

How we price asbestos removal

Prices vary with:

  • How much there is
  • What the material is and its state
  • Parking and access charges
  • Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed

A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

Photos that help

The most useful photos are:

  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • A close-up from a safe distance
  • Street parking nearby
  • Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
