Asbestos removal for Tattenhoe
Asbestos removal for Tattenhoe properties
Asbestos materials are kept wet, taken out whole where we can, and never cut with power tools, so fibre release stays as low as possible. We often deal with cement soffits, flue pipes and cement roof sheets, and people usually contact us about old waste on site and Artex ceilings before renovation.
In places like Tattenhoe, we often remove garage roofs and old sheds, with access through the garden or drive. We only recommend work that’s needed, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Your options compared
Dealing with asbestos before work starts keeps the project on track, rather than halting work when it’s found. Sometimes a test shows removal isn’t needed, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

Doing it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
The process
On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, then keep the material damp throughout. We will tell you when we’ve finished and what you will receive afterwards. Outdoor removal in Tattenhoe is planned to finish in daylight: that means by about 3:55pm in December, or about 9:25pm in June.
- Start with photos, the postcode and any existing reports
- We confirm what the material is and what category of work it falls into
- A written quote follows, covering method, controls and disposal
- On the agreed date we set up the work area and remove the material carefully
- We clean the area and send the consignment note
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the way to the work area
- Mention any parking restrictions
- Keep children and pets away on the day

Tattenhoe: your questions answered
Do you cover Tattenhoe from London?
We cover Tattenhoe, about 45 miles from central London.
Do you cover Tattenhoe and the area around Bletchley station?
Yes. Bletchley station is about 2.3 miles east of Tattenhoe, and we cover both.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?
HSE advises the public not to try, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then ask for advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
It varies: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings normally are not licensed.
Typical removal jobs in Tattenhoe
Most removal happens because building work would disturb asbestos: whatever the work will touch should come out first.
People usually contact us about one of these:
- Old cold water tanks
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Debris left from a previous job
- Materials found mid-project
At a school such as Giles Brook Primary School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.

- A picture of the whole area
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- A rough size or measurement
Photos and a postcode help us quote quickly: send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
