What we deal with in Warmlake
Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: whatever the work will touch should come out first.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Debris left from a previous job
- Cement water tanks in lofts
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Artex before plastering
For rentals close to Hollingbourne station, removal fits neatly between tenancies.

Asbestos removal in Warmlake
Much of the asbestos found in homes is asbestos cement, textured coating or floor tiles. HSE treats work on these as non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed in most cases, but it still needs the right controls. People often contact us about broken sheets in gardens and Artex before plastering, including water tanks, cement soffits and textured coatings.
In places like Warmlake, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Prices and what affects them
Prices vary with:
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- Disposal costs
- Licensed or non-licensed
- The quantity or area
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
Photos that help
Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:
- How we’d reach it
- A clear close-up
- An idea of size
- An overall view
Tell us about the material, its location and your plans. Then ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
Doing it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
FAQs for Warmlake
Is asbestos common in Warmlake homes?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Warmlake can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you come out to small villages like Warmlake?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Will I get the price in writing?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
Is asbestos dangerous?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.
Do you work in Warmlake?
Yes, we do: our area includes Warmlake and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description and we will quote.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Can you quote from photos?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.
After the job
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you get the consignment note showing where the waste went.
After we have finished:
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
Things not to do
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
Don’t jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
The process
Materials are released carefully and removed whole where possible, without breaking, dropping or power tools. We wear suitable protective equipment for the job, and use controls to keep dust down.
