Asbestos removal in Steeple Claydon
Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, since the right method depends on what it is. Whether it’s cement water tanks in lofts and textured coatings, we cover flue pipes, cement soffits and cement roof sheets and more.
Homes in Steeple Claydon with bigger gardens may have several outbuildings with cement roofs. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Questions from Steeple Claydon
Do you cover Steeple Claydon from London?
Steeple Claydon is about 49 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do older homes in Steeple Claydon have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.
Can asbestos be left in place?
Often it can stay: sound material that won’t be disturbed can be left and managed. Record it and keep an eye on it.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
It depends on the material and the job. Cement and textured coatings are normally non-licensed; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.

What it might be made of
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement is the most common material we remove: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.
Water tanks and flues
A Gas Safe engineer disconnects any gas appliance first.
Where asbestos turns up
Sometimes damage forces the issue.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Loft water tanks
- Debris left from a previous job
- Garage roof sheets
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
In older buildings across Steeple Claydon, asbestos may be in later additions, so we test before we plan.

Nobody else needs to be in the work area, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere. In winter, the light goes in Steeple Claydon by about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.
