Tanks and flues are usually a half-day job: drained, wrapped whole where possible, and removed with consignment-noted disposal, often bundled with other small removals to share the callout.
01
Where asbestos cement tanks and flues are found
Typically found in loft cold-water cisterns, boiler flues, soil stacks and rainwater goods, most commonly in lofts and service cupboards of pre-1980 homes. Leave any material you suspect may contain asbestos undisturbed. Get advice before drilling, sanding, scraping or carrying out other work that could damage it. A photograph can help us offer initial guidance, but it cannot confirm asbestos. We will explain whether sampling or a survey is needed.
02
How tank and flue removal works
This is non-licensed work. Every job starts with sampling and a written quotation; straightforward enquiries can usually be quoted within 24 hours. Removal is carried out with the controls the law requires for this material, waste leaves site with consignment notes, and the area is handed back with the right certification for your records, whether that's a homeowner's document pack or a four-stage clearance certificate.
03
What tank and flue removal costs
Typical UK guide range: £200 to £900 per job, including disposal and paperwork. Access, quantity and condition move the number, our cost guide and calculator covers the detail, and once we quote, the price is fixed. Figures are industry guide rates, not Innov8 Group prices, we're typically cheaper. Contact us for an official quotation.
Send a photo for initial advice. Straightforward enquiries can usually be quoted within 24 hours. More technical works may require a site visit and assessment before we finalise the quotation.
