Stone Cross: your questions answered

Do you work on properties in the High Weald National Landscape?

Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

Do you come out to small villages like Stone Cross?

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.

Can you help a business or landlord?

We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.

How much does asbestos removal cost in Stone Cross?

There is no fixed price: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.

Can you quote from photos?

Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.

How quickly can you come out?

Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then get advice.

Asbestos removal for Stone Cross properties

Much of the asbestos found in homes is asbestos cement, textured coating or floor tiles. HSE treats work on these as non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed in most cases, but it still needs the right controls. From broken sheets in gardens and old floor tiles and black adhesive, we cover water tanks, floor tiles and gutters and downpipes and more.

Rural removal near Stone Cross can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

What affects the price in Stone Cross

We base our quote on:

  • How much there is
  • The number of samples or the size of the building
  • Parking and access charges
  • The type of material and its condition

Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, such as testing several materials at once.

What to photograph

Before you send photos, a few tips:

  • An idea of size
  • The access route
  • Visible markings
  • The parking area

Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: send them through our contact page.

What happens

Materials are released carefully and removed whole where possible, without breaking, dropping or power tools. Before anything starts, we confirm the areas and materials with you, so there’s no confusion. We plan outdoor jobs in Stone Cross to finish before dark: that means by about 3:55pm in December, or about 9:20pm in June.

  1. Describe the material and send pictures
  2. We identify it if needed and plan the method
  3. You get a written quote, including waste disposal
  4. We remove it with controls to keep fibres down

Limits to be aware of

It’s worth knowing what asbestos removal does and doesn’t cover:

  • Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
  • Making good is normally a separate job
  • Some jobs must be notified first, so the timing needs planning

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.

What we deal with

  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Water tanks
  • Soffits (cement)
  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Panels and boards
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Flue pipes
  • Asbestos cement sheets
  • Bitumen roof felt
  • Artex and textured coatings

What happens next

If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.

To avoid problems in future:

  • Share any survey or test results
  • Let neighbours know if work is near them
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Ensure pets and children are elsewhere

Don’ts

Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.

Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

Removal jobs in Stone Cross

Stone Cross is about 4 miles west of Royal Tunbridge Wells, in Kent. In Stone Cross, we hear from homeowners, landlords and businesses. We cover 922 places across Kent. We work right across the region, from Stone Cross to Crawley (16 miles away).

If you let property near Ashurst Kent station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal. In a school like Fordcombe Church of England Primary School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use. Stone Cross is within about 7 miles of the High Weald National Landscape; removing asbestos from rural buildings there follows the same rules, with access across yards and fields to plan.

We handle removal jobs in every part of the TN3 postcode area and the streets around it. From Ashurst Road and Groombridge Road or a nearby road, the process is the same. Neighbouring places we cover include Ashurst (1 mile west), Fordcombe (1 mile north), Groombridge (1 mile south), Walter's Green (1 mile north-west) and Teasley Mead (1 mile west). We also cover nearby towns such as Sevenoaks (10 miles north), Royal Tunbridge Wells (4 miles east), Tonbridge (7 miles north-east), Kings Hill (14 miles north-east), Paddock Wood (10 miles east) and Southborough (4 miles north-east).

Nearby you will also find Tunbridge Wells Homeopathic Hospital (3.7 miles east) and Bolebroke Castle (3 miles west). The countryside around Stone Cross includes Broadwater Warren RSPB Reserve.

Choosing the right option

Should it come out? If the material is in good condition and will not be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. A price that looks too good to be true often is: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

What you get

  • Clear advice on your options
  • London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
  • Homes, rented property and workplaces
  • Legal disposal, with paperwork

See how we quote or published price ranges.

Doing it yourself?

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

Materials we deal with

Bitumen and felt

Bitumen felts can contain asbestos, usually tightly bound.

Textured coatings

Textured coatings are removed with wet or gel methods, never dry-scraped or sanded. Large-scale steam or gel removal must be notified.

Where asbestos turns up

Some owners remove visible asbestos before a sale or letting, though in good condition it does not always need to go.

These are some of the things we deal with in Stone Cross:

  • Loft water tanks
  • Asbestos found during building work
  • Garage roof sheets
  • Textured coatings

Older buildings in Stone Cross, near Church of St Martin of Tours or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we test before we plan.
