How asbestos removal works in St Mary's Bay
Found asbestos during building work in St Mary's Bay? Work should stop there and people kept out. We will identify it and plan what happens next. Typical materials include gutters and downpipes, flue pipes and water tanks, and people generally contact us about old flues and vinyl and thermoplastic tiles.
Homes in St Mary's Bay with bigger gardens may have several outbuildings with cement roofs, which can often be dealt with together. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

What we deal with in St Mary's Bay
Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: anything the work would disturb should be dealt with first.
People normally contact us about one of these:
- Debris left from a previous job
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
- Artex before plastering
Older buildings in St Mary's Bay, near All Saints or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal.

Common questions in St Mary's Bay
Is asbestos common in St Mary's Bay homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover St Mary's Bay from London?
St Mary's Bay is about 57 miles from central London, well within our area.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.

Your options compared
Should it come out? Sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is generally right. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

Doing it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
