Asbestos removal across Southampton

Removal isn’t always the answer. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we will tell you honestly when that’s the case. Typical jobs include garage roofs and whole garages and loft water tanks, including floor tiles, water tanks and textured coatings.

On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, and keep the material wet as we work.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes vary because of:

Travel and parking
Access to the area
Material and condition
The survey scope

Sometimes a test shows removal isn’t needed, because the material is clear.

What to photograph

The most useful photos are:

A closer photo of the material, without touching it
Street parking nearby
The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
Visible markings

You will get a written quote. Just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749 with the details, including any survey or test you already have.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Southampton

Old materials break down over time: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is when removal comes up.

Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:

Materials found mid-project
Asbestos garages
Debris left from a previous job
Artex before plastering

Limits to be aware of

Here’s what asbestos removal covers, and what it doesn’t:

Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is normally separate
Some jobs must be notified first, which affects the start date
Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling

For landlords, agents and businesses

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Southampton must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

If you run a business from older premises in Southampton, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.

Materials we deal with

Floor tiles

Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with sanders or grinders.

Insulating board and lagging

Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Southampton

How much does asbestos removal cost in Southampton?

Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. Every job gets a written quote.

What if asbestos is found during building work?

The builder should stop and close off the area. We will identify it and advise on removal.

Will I get the price in writing?

Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.

Can asbestos be left in place?

It does not always have to come out: material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
