After we’ve finished in Anthill Common
Making good, such as a new roof or ceiling, is generally a separate job, so plan it before the removal date.
To avoid problems in future:
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- File the consignment note
What to avoid
Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Asbestos found during building work
- Textured coatings
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
- Loft water tanks
If you let property near Portchester station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.

Helpful guides
A closer look at the materials
Floor tiles
Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with power tools.
Bitumen and felt
We remove them without cutting with power tools.
DIY and asbestos
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
What we do and do not cover
Some limits to bear in mind:
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
- Some jobs must be notified first, which affects the start date
- We do not remove anything until it’s been identified
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

FAQs for Anthill Common
Do you cover Anthill Common from London?
Anthill Common is about 59 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you cover small places like Anthill Common?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The removal method depends on the material.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
Can I stay at home during removal?
That depends: outdoor work rarely means leaving. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we have finished.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
