When you are dealing with asbestos, you need a contractor you can absolutely trust. We are dedicated to giving you a safe, reliable, and straightforward service from the very beginning to the end.
- Fully Insured & Compliant: We hold comprehensive Public Liability Insurance. All our work follows strict HSE guidelines and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012) to the letter.
- Certified & Licensed: We hold a valid Waste Carriers Licence, which means all asbestos waste leaves your site legally and goes to the right places.
- Experienced Local Team: Our technicians are thoroughly trained and have years of practical experience identifying, managing, and removing asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) from all sorts of properties.
- Clear Pricing: We give you straightforward, detailed quotes without any hidden costs. You will know exactly what the job entails before we even begin.
- Complete Service: From that first inspection and testing right through to careful removal, safe disposal, and putting things back to normal with reinstatement work, we handle everything for you.
- Experts for All Property Types: We have the skills and equipment for projects of any size, whether it is a single asbestos sheet in a garden shed or a full site survey for a large factory.
Identifying where asbestos is, what type it is, and its current condition marks the crucial first step. Our detailed surveys give you the information you need to manage any risks and meet legal requirements. We help you understand the potential risks asbestos can pose to health and how to prevent exposure.
- Home Buyer Asbestos Surveys: An essential check before you buy a property. This identifies any potential hidden asbestos costs and important safety risks.
- Asbestos Management Surveys: This is a legal requirement for all non-domestic properties. We pinpoint any ACMs, assess their condition, and create a report and register. This helps you manage them safely, meeting your legal duties for landlords and business owners under CAR 2012.
- Refurbishment & Demolition Surveys: A legally mandated, intrusive survey you must complete before any construction, refurbishment, or demolition work starts.
- Re-inspections: We can carry out regular re-inspections to check on the condition of asbestos we have found before, making sure your management plan stays current.
If you have come across a material you suspect might contain asbestos, it is really important not to disturb it. Our team can safely take a sample. We then send it off to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for analysis. This gives you a definitive result and a certificate, so you know exactly what you are dealing with. We often test materials like:
- Textured coatings (like Artex) on ceilings and walls
- Asbestos cement (found in garage roofs, wall panels, soffits, and gutters)
- Vinyl floor tiles and their backing paper
- Asbestos Insulating Board (AIB)
- Pipe insulation and boiler flues
Professional Asbestos Removal and Collection Services
Our main service is the safe removal of non-licensed asbestos from all kinds of properties. Our trained team follows very strict procedures to seal off the area, carefully remove the materials, and leave your property thoroughly clean and safe. This process protects against the dangers of asbestos dust.
- Residential Removal: We specialise in taking out asbestos from garages, sheds, outbuildings, soffits and fascias, floor tiles, and old cement water tanks.
- Commercial Removal: From office renovations to shop fit-outs, we remove asbestos cement panels, ceiling tiles, and other ACMs. We aim to cause as little disruption to your business as possible.
- Industrial Removal: We manage large-scale removal projects for asbestos cement roofing and cladding on warehouses, factories, and agricultural buildings.
If you have asbestos that has already been removed or dismantled, we also offer a professional collection service. We make sure it is correctly wrapped and transported to a licensed hazardous waste facility, giving you all the necessary legal paperwork (a Hazardous Waste Consignment Note) for your records. This clearly explains what happens to asbestos waste once it leaves your property.
