Kent hotels range from seafront properties in Folkestone to converted aparthotels in Maidstone. Most were built in the asbestos era. AIB, textured coatings and lagged pipework are a common find.
We design every programme around your occupancy. Sealed floor-by-floor phasing, overnight slots, waste routes clear of guest areas, and independent air testing before rooms go back to the letting pool.
Every work zone sealed and access controlled
Air testing available on all adjacent floors
From the opening survey through to the final handback certificate, the programme fits around your occupancy rather than asking your occupancy to fit around us.
Management or refurbishment survey timed around your calendar, producing a register that your general manager and your insurer can actually read and rely on.
Phasing set by floor or wing, out-of-hours slots costed in from the start, and a fixed written figure per phase issued within 48 hours of the survey.
Work zones sealed and run under negative pressure where required. Waste moved along back-of-house routes at pre-agreed times. Housekeeping kept informed at the start of every shift.
Independent asbestos air testing where the work category or your insurer requires it, documentation issued per phase, and rooms returned to sale with written confirmation of clearance.
The programme is costed in rooms taken out of sale, not just labour hours, so the financial impact is a number you can plan around.
Waste, equipment and operatives are routed through back-of-house at all times.
Register updates and phase clearance documents produced as standard, not on request.
Survey, removal, monitoring and all paperwork under one fixed agreement with one accountable team.
FAQS
Yes, provided the programme is properly designed. The floor or wing being worked on is sealed and withdrawn from letting, air pathways are controlled throughout, and areas adjacent to the work zone can be independently tested for reassurance. Guests in other parts of the building are completely unaffected.
If the building pre-dates 2000, yes, without exception. An asbestos survey scoped to the affected rooms is a legal requirement before any intrusive work begins. It protects your contractor as much as your guests, and it is straightforward to arrange with minimal disruption to the rest of the property.
The room goes off, the door stays shut, nothing is cleaned or disturbed, and a photo comes straight to us. We provide same-day guidance, arrange priority sampling where needed, and return a written answer before the room goes back into the letting pool.
Removal is inherently quiet. The parts of the process that generate more noise, such as preparation work and making good, are scheduled for daytime windows or sections of the building that are out of use. There are no chemical odours at any stage of asbestos removal.
Very much so. Converted buildings with continuous occupancy are precisely where carefully phased, fully documented asbestos removal matters most. The same sealed-floor approach, out-of-hours logistics and per-phase paperwork apply to serviced apartments, scaled to match the number of units involved.
Fixed, per phase, following the survey. Out-of-hours slots are included in the quoted figure from the outset rather than added as a premium later. Where rooms need to come out of the letting pool, we present programme options so you can make an informed choice about pace versus revenue impact.
It depends on the programme, but a standard guest-floor phase covering seal, removal, testing and handback typically runs over days rather than weeks. The quotation states rooms-out-of-sale time as a fixed figure so the revenue impact is known in advance, not estimated after the fact.
Yes throughout. Our own trained team handles every stage of the removal. Independent analysts are brought in only for the air testing, where independence from the removal contractor is a requirement. Your duty manager or operations lead has one named contact for the entire programme.
We carry out asbestos removal across Kent, covering seafront hotels in Folkestone, Margate and Dover, converted aparthotels in Maidstone and Canterbury, and guest houses across the county’s towns and villages. Occupancy pattern and building type matter more than location. Share both with us and we will design the programme around them.
