Can I do it myself?

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

After the job
Replacement work is normally separate, so plan it before the removal date.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- 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
- Keep children and pets away on the day
What to avoid
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
Don’t jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
Why people call us in Wingham Well
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so buildings across Kent built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Old flues
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
- Finds during refurbishment
- Textured coatings
In older buildings across Wingham Well, asbestos may be in later additions, so we test before we plan.

Weighing up your options
Should it come out? If the material is in good condition and will not be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. The cost of asbestos removal depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.

FAQs for Wingham Well
Do you cover small places like Wingham Well?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Is asbestos common in Wingham Well homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Wingham Well?
Yes, we do: Wingham Well is within the area we cover in Kent. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is normally needed.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE’s advice is not to do it yourself, and higher-risk materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
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.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
