Asbestos in Feckenham
Feckenham is a long-established village just outside Redditch, with farmhouses, cottages, and farmyard buildings sitting among newer infill homes. Farmyards are where asbestos cement most often survives: livestock sheds, Dutch barns and grain stores roofed in the 1950s to 1970s. Many are no longer used, which is a good moment to deal with them before the sheets weather further.
What is typical here
Farm buildings, stores and barns with cement sheet roofing, plus garages and cottage outbuildings.
Feckenham is on the Worcestershire side of the Redditch area. If your building was put up or extended before about 2000, it is worth getting a view on any roof sheets, boards, ceilings or lagging before they are drilled, scrubbed or knocked down.
What we can help with in Feckenham
- Garage roofs: A single garage with its original corrugated roof is the most common asbestos job we are sent from the Redditch area.
- Homes: Homes built before 2000 can contain asbestos in several places, and not all of them are roofs.
- Commercial: Owners and managers of non-domestic buildings have a legal duty to manage asbestos.
- Industrial: Redditch has a long industrial history, and many of its older units and sheds still carry cement sheet roofs and wall cladding.
- Agricultural: Farms around Redditch, Feckenham, Inkberrow and the Arrow valley still have plenty of mid-century barns and sheds with cement sheet roofs.
- Schools & public: Many schools, halls and public buildings were built or extended in the decades when asbestos materials were common.
- Surveys & testing: If you are not sure what a material is, or you are about to start building work, a survey tells you what you have.
- Artex & ceilings: Many homes decorated before 2000 have textured ceilings.
Council, waste and paperwork
The relevant council for Feckenham is Wychavon District Council, and your county council runs the household recycling centres. Many of these do not accept asbestos, or accept only small, double-wrapped amounts under strict conditions, so check before you take anything yourself. A registered contractor takes wrapped waste to a permitted site and gives you a waste transfer note, which is the safer route.

Questions from Feckenham.
Can a whole farm building be done in stages?
Yes. Large roofs are often taken off in sections and the budget spread across seasons. Say if the building still shelters animals, feed or machinery so the contractor can plan around them.
Do you do the work yourselves?
No. We are an introduction service. We pass your photos and details to an independent local contractor, who provides the quote, does the work and issues the waste paperwork.
Is the quote really free?
Yes. Sending your details costs nothing and carries no obligation. The contractor's written quote is what counts, and you can say no.
What should I send?
Two or three clear photos, the rough size of the roof or area, the age of the building if you know it, and a postcode. A phone photo is fine.
What happens to the asbestos waste?
It is wrapped, labelled and taken by a registered carrier to a site permitted to accept it. You should receive a waste transfer note.
Can I get a new roof fitted at the same time?
Usually yes. Ask for removal and replacement to be priced separately so you can compare them.
Do you cover farms, businesses and schools?
Yes. We introduce contractors who work on domestic, commercial, industrial, agricultural and public buildings around Redditch.
