Asbestos in Solihull
Solihull is a prosperous town south-east of Birmingham, known for its historic high street, the huge Land Rover plant at Lode Lane and extensive interwar suburbs. Its car factory, commercial buildings and 1930s and post-war housing used asbestos insulating board, lagging and asbestos cement. The semis and estates across the town commonly hold artex, textured ceilings and asbestos cement soffits and garage roofs.
Whatever you’re dealing with, we make Solihull properties safe the right way — identified, proven in the lab, and either contained or removed with paperwork that satisfies lenders, buyers and the HSE.

Enclose
Work areas are sealed in controlled enclosures under negative pressure so no fibre escapes.

Clear
An independent analyst runs the 4-stage clearance and issues the certificate of reoccupation. Waste leaves on consignment notes.
Asbestos Removal in Solihull: FAQs
Is asbestos common in Solihull's interwar homes?
Yes — the 1930s semis and post-war homes across Solihull often contain artex, AIB and asbestos cement products such as soffits and garage roofs. A survey of your property identifies these materials before you carry out any renovation work.
Do you survey commercial premises around Solihull?
We do. Older offices, retail units and industrial buildings around Solihull frequently contain asbestos in ceiling tiles, lagging and floor finishes, and all non-domestic premises need a management survey by law. We provide a full register and plan.
Do I need a licensed contractor to remove asbestos?
It depends on the material. High-risk items like pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and asbestos insulating board need an HSE-licensed contractor. Lower-risk items such as cement sheets and floor tiles can be removed under non-licensed controls. We are licensed for both and will tell you which applies.
Can I stay in the property during removal?
For small non-licensed jobs, often yes, with the work area sealed off. For licensed removal inside the home we usually recommend vacating the affected zone until the clearance certificate is issued. We plan the safest sequence around you.
