Common reasons for removal jobs in Tandridge
Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so pre-2000 buildings across Surrey may contain it.
You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Artex before plastering
For non-domestic buildings like St Peter's CofE Infant School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.
Questions to ask before booking

What happens
If we find more than expected, or something different, we stop and talk to you, before changing the plan. We go over the plan with you first, so you know what’s happening. In winter, the light goes in Tandridge by about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.

- If it hasn’t been identified, we sample it first
- We plan the method, controls, waste and any notification, and send a quote
- On the day we set up, keep the material damp and remove it whole where we can
- The area is cleaned and the waste goes to a permitted site, with paperwork
Preparing for the visit

What happens next
Keep the consignment note with your property records: it shows the asbestos was disposed of legally.
A few practical points:
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Book the replacement before removal
- Share any survey or test results
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
Avoid these
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Don’t jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

Questions from Tandridge
Do older homes in Tandridge have asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Tandridge may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover small places like Tandridge?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, so identifying it before work is important.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
Not always. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed work; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.
Should all asbestos be removed?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE’s advice is not to do it yourself, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.
