How asbestos removal works in Tutt Hill
We remove asbestos from homes, rented property and commercial buildings across Tutt Hill: garage roofs, flues, water tanks, Artex and floor tiles among them. Every job is planned to HSE guidance, with the waste taken to a permitted site. People often contact us about old waste on site and old floor tiles and black adhesive, involving cement roof sheets, gutters and downpipes and textured coatings.
In towns and villages like Tutt Hill, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, where access across fields or yards needs planning. If you’re unsure what you need, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Tutt Hill questions
Do you cover small places like Tutt Hill?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
How far is Tutt Hill from London?
We cover Tutt Hill, about 45 miles from central London.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
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.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Can asbestos be left in place?
Often it can stay: sound material that will not be disturbed can be left and managed. Record it and keep an eye on it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
What’s included, and what is not
Worth knowing before booking:
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
- Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.

For landlords, agents and businesses
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Tutt Hill, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
Prices and what affects them
We base our quote on:
- The quantity or area
- Licensed or non-licensed
- How much waste there is
- How many samples are needed
A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
Photos that help
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:
- An idea of size
- The access route
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
For a quote, call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Which option is right?
Very cheap quotes can be a warning sign: controls, equipment and legal disposal all cost money. Always ask for the consignment note. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.

Can I do it myself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Materials, one by one
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.
