How asbestos removal works in Stanton St John
Asbestos materials are kept wet, taken out whole where we can, and never cut with power tools, so fibre release stays as low as possible. From garage roof sheets and vinyl and thermoplastic tiles, we deal with cement roof sheets, water tanks and flue pipes and more.
In places like Stanton St John, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, where access across fields or yards needs planning. We explain what we find in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Why people call us in Stanton St John
Sometimes damage forces the issue.
Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Cement water tanks in lofts
- Old waste on site
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Old flues
In older properties in Stanton St John, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we test before we plan.
What your quote should include
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- The scope of the job, in writing
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
- How the work will be done, and the controls used
Duty holders and landlords in Stanton St John
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Stanton St John must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
DIY and asbestos
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

- Plan any replacement work before the removal date

Avoid these
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste.
