How asbestos removal works in Upper Eashing
Higher-risk materials such as pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, which must be carried out by a contractor holding an HSE licence.

Prices and what affects them
Our quotes take into account:
- The size of the job
- The type of material and its condition
- How much waste there is
- How many samples are needed
Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
Sending photos
Photos often save us a visit:
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- Street parking nearby
- Damaged areas
- Approximate dimensions
Tell us about the material, its location and your plans. Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
Responsibilities for owners
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
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.
Weighing up your options
What kind of work is it? The material and the job decide. Our guide explains the difference, with links to HSE’s pages. Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

Should you do it yourself?
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.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

How far is Upper Eashing from London?

What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you are worried about your health.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Unless it’s already been identified, yes: the way it’s removed depends on the material.

Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.

That depends: outdoor work rarely means leaving. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we have finished.
