Asbestos removal in Apse Heath
Once the material is out, we clean up and bag or wrap the waste, and you get the waste paperwork. From outbuildings with cement roofs and materials found mid-project, we deal with cement soffits, textured coatings and gutters and downpipes.
Rural removal near Apse Heath can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

Questions from Apse Heath
Do you cover Apse Heath and the area around Shanklin station?
Yes. Shanklin station is about 1.3 miles south-east of Apse Heath, and we cover both.
Is asbestos common in Apse Heath homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
You cannot tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
How can I get a price?
Call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Do you work in flats?
Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
Which option is right?
Should it come out? If the material is in good condition and won’t be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is normally right. When comparing quotes, check what’s included: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.
What you get
- Reports and results you can share
- Clear advice on your options
- Quotes that spell out the scope
- Domestic and commercial work

Can I do it myself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Materials, one by one
Textured coatings
Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement is the most common material we remove: roofs, gutters, flues and tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.
What’s included, and what is not
The usual limits are:
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is normally separate
- Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
