About our asbestos removal in Upper Winchendon
Before removal, the material has to be identified. If it hasn’t been tested, we sample it first, since the right method depends on what it is. Typical materials include water tanks, cement soffits and flue pipes, and people normally contact us about asbestos garages and loft water tanks.
In a village like Upper Winchendon, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

After the job
If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.
Some practical advice:
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Tell us about parking and access
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
Avoid these
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.
What it costs

Photos that help
Before you send photos, a few tips:
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- A rough size or measurement
- Damaged areas
- A close-up from a safe distance

What else we do in Upper Winchendon
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Weighing up your options
Very cheap quotes can be a warning sign: proper controls, protective equipment, a registered waste carrier and disposal cost money. Ask to see the waste paperwork. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

What we deal with in Upper Winchendon
Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: whatever the work will touch should come out first.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Common situations include:
- Old cold water tanks
- Old waste on site
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Old flues
At a school such as Waddesdon Church of England School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.
