About our asbestos removal in Stodmarsh
Licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, and has to be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. We will tell you if your job in Stodmarsh falls into that category.

Materials we deal with
Textured coatings
We soften coatings and remove them wet, never sanding or dry scraping. Large-scale steam or gel removal must be notified.
Floor tiles
Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with power tools.
Choosing the right option
Should it come out? If the material is in good condition and won’t be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is typically right. Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
Why us?
- Identify first, remove only when needed
- Covering London and the South East
- Jobs planned to HSE guidance
- Waste paperwork for every removal

What else we do in Stodmarsh

Your questions about asbestos removal in Stodmarsh
Is asbestos common in Stodmarsh homes?
Any home in Stodmarsh built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Stodmarsh from London?
We cover Stodmarsh, about 57 miles from central London.
What does licensed work mean?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings usually aren’t licensed.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, then contact a professional.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes, of course. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
Not always. Cement and textured coatings are typically non-licensed; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not necessarily. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
