Need asbestos removal in Windlesham?
Can I do it myself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Asbestos removal for Windlesham properties
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. Common materials are floor tiles, flue pipes and cement roof sheets, and people typically contact us about old waste on site and vinyl and thermoplastic tiles.
In places like Windlesham, we often remove garage roofs and old sheds, with access through the garden or drive. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Where asbestos turns up
Materials deteriorate with age: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is when removal comes up.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Garage roofs and whole garages
- Finds during refurbishment
- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
Older buildings in Windlesham, near Church of St John the Baptist or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we test before we plan.

Your options compared
Removing asbestos before building work avoids stopping the job halfway, rather than halting work when it’s found. Doing several things in one visit can help, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
