Choosing the right option

Removing asbestos before building work avoids stopping the job halfway, when everything has to wait for it to be dealt with.

Comparing quotes

  • The method and controls
  • Which areas and materials are covered
  • Waste disposal and the consignment note
  • Suitable insurance for the work

After the job

If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, for anyone working there later.

  • Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Book the replacement before removal
  • Send photos of the material and the access
  • Tell us about any previous survey

Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

What we deal with in RG40

Damage from DIY, storms or accidents can make removal necessary, especially if broken material is lying around.

Common situations in older properties include:

  • Old flues
  • Old cold water tanks
  • Debris left from a previous job
  • Old floor tiles and black adhesive

What affects the price in RG40

Every quote reflects:

  • How much there is
  • Disposal costs
  • What the material is and its state
  • The category of work

How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

Sending photos

When you send photos, these help most:

  • The access route
  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • Approximate dimensions
  • Cracks or breaks

Tell us about the material, its location and your plans. Then fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.

What we do and don’t cover

We are upfront about what’s included:

  • We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified
  • Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
  • Bad weather can affect outdoor removal

RG40 questions

What paperwork will I get?

It depends on what we do: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.

How dangerous is asbestos?

Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The main risk is from disturbing it, which is why identifying it first matters.

What does removal cost?

Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. Every job gets a written quote.

Do you work in flats?

We do. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.

Can you quote from photos?

Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we will arrange to see it.

Can you help a business or landlord?

Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.

Do you work on commercial premises?

Yes. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
