Asbestos removal in St Peter's
After removal, the work area is cleaned and the waste is double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken away, with a consignment note for your records. People often contact us about old flues and materials found mid-project, involving flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and cement roof sheets.
Properties in areas like St Peter's with larger plots may have several outbuildings with cement roofs, which can often be dealt with together. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Your questions about asbestos removal in St Peter's
Do you cover St Peter's and the area around Broadstairs station?
Yes. Broadstairs station is about 0.7 miles south-east of St Peter's, and we cover both.
Is asbestos common in St Peter's homes?
Any home in St Peter's built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it.
Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials need a licensed contractor.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
Common reasons for removal jobs in St Peter's

You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
- Artex before plastering
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
Landlords near Broadstairs station often time removal for when a property is empty.
Questions to ask before you book

What drives the price:

Photos that help
When you send photos, these help most:

A closer look at the materials
Floor tiles
The adhesive underneath sometimes needs its own approach.
