About our asbestos removal in Stocks Green
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. From garage roof sheets and Artex before plastering, we cover flue pipes, water tanks and gutters and downpipes.
In a village like Stocks Green, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

For landlords, agents and businesses
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
If you manage or own a block in Stocks Green, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.
What it might be made of
Insulating board and lagging
It needs an HSE-licensed contractor and 14 days’ notice.
Textured coatings
Textured coatings are removed with wet or gel methods, never dry-scraped or sanded. Larger-scale steam or gel removal is notifiable non-licensed work.
Afterwards
Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Tell us about parking and access
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
What to avoid
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Why people call us in Stocks Green

Should you do it yourself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Which option is right?
Remove, or leave and manage? Sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. When comparing quotes, check what’s included: scope, method, waste disposal and paperwork.
