About our asbestos removal in Southborough

Once the material is out, we clean up and bag or wrap the waste, with a consignment note for your records. We often deal with textured coatings, floor tiles and flue pipes, and people usually contact us about Artex before plastering and debris left from a previous job.

In a smaller place like Southborough, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, with access through the garden or drive. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, for your records.

Common questions in Southborough

Do you work on properties in the High Weald National Landscape?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

Do you work near High Brooms station?

Yes. High Brooms station is about 1 mile south-east of Southborough, and we cover both.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

Not always: sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.

What does removal cost?

Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. We quote each job individually.

Can you help a business or landlord?

Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.

How dangerous is asbestos?

Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.

My builder has found asbestos. What now?

Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.

Prices and what affects them

What changes the cost:

Disposal costs
Access to the area
The number of samples or the size of the building
What the material is and its state

Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

Photos that help

Before you send photos, a few tips:

Cracks or breaks
An overall view
Approximate dimensions
Street parking nearby

Include any existing survey or test when you fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749; it helps us quote accurately.

What’s included, and what is not

Here’s what asbestos removal covers, and what it does not:

Making good is normally a separate job
Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Should you do it yourself?

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

For businesses and landlords in Southborough

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Southborough must 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.

The process

Materials are released carefully and removed whole where possible, without breaking, dropping or power tools. Before we start, we walk through the job with you and answer any questions. We plan outdoor jobs in Southborough to finish before dark: that means by about 3:55pm in December, or about 9:20pm in June.
