Weighing up your options

Removing asbestos before building work avoids stopping the job halfway, when everything has to wait for it to be dealt with. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.

Why choose us

  • Homes, rented property and workplaces
  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing
  • Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory

Read how we quote or the cost guide.

After the job

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

After we’ve finished:

  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Tell us about any previous survey
  • Let us know where we can park

Don’ts

Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.

What affects the price in Toy's Hill

The biggest factors in the price are:

  • Material and condition
  • Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
  • The size of the job
  • How much waste there is

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

What to photograph

When you send photos, these help most:

  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it
  • Where we could park
  • Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
  • The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch

Toy's Hill is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London we cover. Our nearest city page is Crawley, about 16 miles away.

In a school like Ide Hill Church of England Primary School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use. In older buildings across Toy's Hill, asbestos may be in later additions, so materials are identified first. Toy's Hill is within about 7 miles of the Kent Downs National Landscape; removing asbestos from rural buildings there follows the same rules, with access across yards and fields to plan.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Toy's Hill

Do you work near Edenbridge station?

Yes. Edenbridge station is about 3.2 miles south-west of Toy's Hill, and we cover both.

Do you work on properties in the Kent Downs National Landscape?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

What’s the difference between a test and a survey?

Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.

Can I stay at home during removal?

It depends on the job: outdoor work rarely means leaving. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.

What paperwork will I get?

That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.

How much does asbestos removal cost in Toy's Hill?

There is no fixed price: the material, the amount, its condition, access and the waste all matter.

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.

Materials we deal with

Bitumen and felt

They’re removed by hand.

Asbestos cement

Cement products make up most removal jobs: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. It’s kept damp and removed whole where possible.

Duty holders and landlords in Toy's Hill

The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

Step by step

We unfix materials and take them out in whole pieces where we can, without breaking, dropping or power tools. We’ll tell you when we’ve finished and what you will receive afterwards. Outdoor removal in Toy's Hill is planned to finish in daylight: that means by about 3:55pm in December, or about 9:20pm in June.
