When asbestos is a concern, you need a contractor you can truly rely on. We promise to give you a safe, dependable, and clear service from start to finish. We carry full Public Liability Insurance, and all our work follows strict HSE guidelines and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012). We hold a valid Waste Carriers Licence, which means all asbestos waste is handled and disposed of legally and with care. Our local technicians are fully trained and have years of hands-on experience finding, looking after, and removing asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) from all sorts of buildings. We give you clear, detailed quotes without any hidden costs, so you know exactly what the job involves before we begin. From the first check and testing, right through to removal, safe disposal, and even putting things back how they were, we manage the whole process for you. We have the skills and tools for any job, from a single asbestos sheet in a garden shed to a full site survey for a large factory.

Knowing where asbestos is, what type it is, and its condition is the most important first step. Our detailed surveys give you the information you need to manage any risks and stick to the law. We offer:

  • Home Buyer Asbestos Surveys: A vital check before you buy a property. This helps spot any hidden asbestos costs and potential safety issues.
  • Asbestos Management Surveys: This is a legal must-have for all non-domestic properties. We find any ACMs, check their condition, and put together a report and register to help you manage them safely.
  • Refurbishment & Demolition Surveys: A legally required, intrusive survey that absolutely has to be done before any building, renovation, or demolition work starts.
  • Re-inspections: We can do regular re-checks to keep an eye on asbestos you've already found, making sure your management plan stays current.
    If your property was built or refurbished before the year 2000, there's a good chance it could contain asbestos. It was a very common building material from the 1950s to the 1990s.

If you’ve found a material you think might contain asbestos, the most important thing is: do not touch it. Our team can safely take a sample and send it to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for analysis. This gives you a clear result and a certificate. 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
    Remember, asbestos was used in over 3,000 products and can be very tricky to identify just by looking. Getting it tested is the only way to be 100% certain.

Professional Asbestos Removal for Your Peace of Mind

Our main service is the careful removal of non-licensed asbestos from all sorts of properties. Our trained team follows very strict steps to seal off the area, take out the materials, and leave your property clean and safe.

  • Home Removal: We specialise in taking asbestos out of 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 with as little disruption to your business as possible.
  • Industrial Removal: We handle big jobs like removing asbestos cement roofing and cladding on warehouses, factories, and farm buildings.
    While it's not strictly illegal for a homeowner to remove tiny amounts of non-licensed asbestos cement, it's incredibly risky if not done right. Without the proper training, safety gear (like PPE and RPE), and disposal methods, you could expose yourself and others to dangerous fibres. We always advise you to use a professional. [What is "non-licensed" asbestos](/non-licensed-asbestos-removal "What is "non-licensed" asbestos")? This means asbestos-containing materials that are lower risk and don't need a special license from the HSE to remove. Examples include asbestos cement (roofs, panels), floor tiles, and textured coatings. Even though they are 'non-licensed,' these materials are still hazardous and must be handled by trained professionals.

Fantastic service. We had some old asbestos floor tiles that needed removing. The team was fast, friendly, and very knowledgeable. They handled all the waste disposal and provided the consignment note as promised. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.
