Asbestos removal in Tadworth

DIY and asbestos

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Asbestos removal for Tadworth properties

Before removal, the material has to be identified. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. From old cold water tanks and old floor tiles and black adhesive, we deal with gutters and downpipes, textured coatings and cement roof sheets and more.

Homes in Tadworth with bigger gardens can have more than one cement-roofed building, which can often be dealt with together. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

After the job

Keep the consignment note with your property records: it shows the asbestos was disposed of legally.

A few practical points:

  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Share any survey or test results

Avoid these

Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.

Choosing an asbestos contractor

Your questions about asbestos removal in Tadworth

Do you cover Tadworth from London?

Tadworth is about 15 miles from central London, well within our area.

Do you cover Tadworth and the area around Tadworth station?

Yes, we cover Tadworth and the area towards Tadworth station, about 0.5 miles south-west.

Is asbestos dangerous?

Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.

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.

Can I stay at home during removal?

Outdoor work rarely affects you indoors. Indoor work areas are sealed off and kept clear while the work is done.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.

What does removal cost?

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

Which asbestos work needs a licence?

It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
