Asbestos barn removal London and Surrey

Thanks to its range of benefits, asbestos was once widely used in barns and farm buildings before its full ban in 1999. Asbestos in barns can still pose a health risk if the material deteriorates, gets disturbed or is damaged.

At Goodbye Asbestos, we’re asbestos compliance experts, providing professional surveys, risk assessments and removal services. Ensure your property, workers and animals remain protected from the hazards of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs).

Do old barns have asbestos?

Many older outbuildings like barns built or renovated before 2000 still contain asbestos. It can typically be found in spots like corrugated roofing, wall panels, guttering, cement and insulation due to its impressive fire resistance. Signs your barn has ACMs include the presence of corrugated roof sheets, cement panels, insulation boards, sprayed coatings or old pipe lagging. However, if you suspect there’s asbestos in your barn, call Goodbye Asbestos to perform professional sampling and testing to confirm.

  • "Very professional and friendly service. Initialy spoke with Andy who gave us a quote and date for the work to be done. Chris and Jeff arrived on time and completely removed our garage although it was pouring with rain. They cleared all the rubbish and left the area clean. Would thoughly recomend this company. Work carried out in Crawley, West Sussex."

    Alan Barrett

  • "Removed an asbestos garage roof, whole shed with asbestos roof, and then when there was further asbestos at the end of the garden took that too. Worked very hard solidly for two hours, loaded sheets, wore masks and suits. Great service and solved a big problem for me."

    Elizabeth Anderson

  • "I had 40 sqm of aertex ceiling removed in my house and the price came out as reasonable (particularly against 3 other quotes I had for the job). The job was completed in one day which I was chuffed with and the guys made sure that the house was safe for us to live in afterwards. Very happy with Goodbye Asbestos, would highly recommend."

    Olivia Lands

  • "I had my asbestos water tank removed from my loft in Croydon. Chris did a great job. They had about a weeks lead time. I needed this done ASAP and they were able to prioritise it and we booked it in next day. Thanks to Andy"

    Danny Williams

  • "Goodbye Asbestos provided a very polite and professional service on a pre-purchase where a suspicious material was identified by a surveyor. Tom gave us a quick turn around and timeframe and kept us updated throughout the process. Would highly recommend for a no fuss experience!"

    Elizabeth Packham

  • "Great service, friendly staff and competitive price. The asbestos was picked up by a diligent worker who came back and checked that there were no small bits on the ground. That really impressed me. Would recommend."

    James Goldbridge

  • "On finding Marley tiles on our floors we were in urgent need of having them removed. Goodbye Asbestos were amazing. They booked us in really quickly and on time, came and scraped up all the offending tiles and gripper rods. They disposed of the rubbish and sealed the under floor, leaving us ready for the laying of our new flooring. A job well done."

    Paul Tootill

  • "I have asked Goodbye Asbestos to remove my asbestos roof and replace it with insulated corrugated metal panels. I recommend them highly as I am very pleased with the quality of their workmanship, their attentive service and communications."

    Stefano Ferrari

  • "I have used Goodbye Asbestos twice, once removing an old asbestos shed and recently my large garage which had an asbestos roof. The guys are efficient, clean and friendly. All wear the appropriate clothing whilst handling the asbestos. Organising the quote and the demolition was easy. I'd highly recommend Goodbye Asbestos for any Asbestos removal you may require."

    Callum Stott

  • "I wanted to say a big thank you to Chris and the team for the superb job they did this morning in dismantling our horrible old asbestos/concrete garage! It was all done very quickly and professionally. They wore PPE and the asbestos roof panels were securely wrapped in plastic sheeting. The site was left clean and tidy afterwards. I also appreciated your sending me your waste licence and a copy of your insurance which was very reassuring as one reads some horror stories about waste disposal cowboys."

Asbestos in farm buildings – is it safe?

Asbestos in barns can pose a serious health risk if the materials are disturbed or damaged. This may release harmful fibres into the air, and if inhaled, it can cause diseases like lung cancer and mesothelioma. While asbestos is generally considered safe when undisturbed, old barns often face wear and tear over time, so professional inspections and ongoing monitoring are essential.

Can you remove asbestos from a barn?

Removing asbestos from barns is a highly specialised project that should be handled by a trained professional. Otherwise, you could risk releasing and inhaling the harmful fibres within the material. As certified asbestos contractors, we have the right equipment, proactive clothing and expert techniques to perform safe asbestos removal services, taking ACMs away for disposal through the correct channels.
