Dealing with asbestos means you need a contractor you can absolutely trust. We’re committed to giving you a safe, reliable, and straightforward service right from the start of your project.

  • Fully Insured & Compliant: We hold full Public Liability Insurance, and every piece of work we do follows strict HSE guidelines and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012). Your safety is our highest priority.
  • Certified & Licensed: We've got a valid Waste Carriers Licence, so you can be sure all asbestos waste is handled and disposed of legally and responsibly, meeting rigorous environmental standards.
  • Local & Experienced Team: Our qualified technicians are fully trained and have years of hands-on experience. They've identified, managed, and safely removed asbestos materials from a huge variety of properties right here in the Windsor area and beyond.
  • Transparent Pricing: We provide clear, detailed quotes without any hidden fees. You'll always know exactly what your asbestos project involves before we even start work.
  • Comprehensive Service: From that initial inspection and testing, right through to safe removal, secure disposal, and even reinstatement works, we manage the entire process for you, taking the stress out of it.
  • Domestic, Commercial & Industrial Experts: We have the skills and specialist equipment to tackle projects of any scale, from a single asbestos sheet in a garden shed to a full site survey for a factory.

Knowing where asbestos is, what type it is, and its condition is the absolutely critical first step. Our thorough surveys give you the information you need to manage any risks and make sure you comply with the law. If your property was built or refurbished before the year 2000, there's a good chance it could contain asbestos, as it was a very common building material then. You often can't tell just by looking; professional testing is key.

  • Home Buyer Asbestos Surveys: An essential check before you buy a property. This identifies potential hidden asbestos costs and safety risks, giving you peace of mind with your investment.
  • Asbestos Management Surveys: This is a legal requirement for all non-domestic properties. We’ll identify any asbestos-containing materials (ACMs), assess their condition, and create a report and register to help you manage them safely.
  • Refurbishment & Demolition Surveys: This is a legally mandated, intrusive survey that absolutely must be completed before any construction, refurbishment, or demolition work begins.
  • Re-inspections: We can carry out scheduled re-inspections to keep an eye on the condition of previously identified asbestos, making sure your management plan stays completely up to date.

If you've found a material you suspect might contain asbestos – please, do not disturb it! Our professional team can safely take a sample for you and send it to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for analysis. This gives you a definitive result and an official certificate, so you know exactly what you're dealing with. We commonly test materials such as:

  • Textured coatings (like Artex) on ceilings and walls
  • Asbestos cement (often seen in garage roofs, wall panels, soffits, and gutters)
  • Vinyl floor tiles and their backing paper
  • Asbestos Insulating Board (AIB)
  • Pipe insulation and boiler flues

Safe Asbestos Removal & Collection – Protecting Health in Windsor

Our main service is the safe removal of non-licensed asbestos from all kinds of properties. Our highly trained team follows strict procedures to contain the work area, carefully remove the materials, and leave your property clean and safe. While it's not strictly illegal for a homeowner to remove tiny amounts of non-licensed asbestos cement themselves, it's extremely hazardous if you don't do it correctly. Without the right training, equipment, and disposal methods, you risk exposing yourself and others to dangerous fibres. We always recommend using our professionals.

  • Domestic Removal: We specialise in removing asbestos from garages, sheds, outbuildings, soffits and fascias, floor tiles, and old cement water tanks for homeowners.
  • Commercial Removal: From office refurbishments to retail fit-outs, we remove asbestos cement panels, ceiling tiles, and other ACMs with minimal disruption to your daily operations.
  • Industrial Removal: We safely handle large-scale removal of asbestos cement roofing and cladding on warehouses, factories, and agricultural buildings.
  • Asbestos Collection & Disposal: If you already have asbestos that has been safely removed or dismantled, we offer a professional collection service. We make sure it's correctly wrapped and transported to a licensed hazardous waste facility, providing you with all the necessary legal paperwork (Hazardous Waste Consignment Note) for your records.
  • Asbestos Encapsulation & Reinstatement: Sometimes, if the asbestos is in good condition, removal isn't the only option. Encapsulation involves sealing or enclosing the material to prevent fibre release. This can be a very cost-effective and safe management solution. After removal work, we also offer a full reinstatement service, replacing roofs, ceilings, flooring, and walls to get your space back to normal.

Used Southern Asbestos to remove old Artex ceilings from our home in Maidenhead before a big renovation. The team was punctual, tidy, and took every precaution to ensure the area was safe. They left the site spotless. A very professional and trustworthy company.

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.
