Asbestos help in Atherfield Green
Asbestos removal in Atherfield Green
Every removal job in Atherfield Green is planned first: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified, before anyone starts. We often deal with cement soffits, floor tiles and gutters and downpipes, and typical jobs are old waste on site and textured coatings.
Rural removal near Atherfield Green can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

What it might be made of
Bitumen and felt
We remove them without cutting with power tools.
Textured coatings
Taking the boards down can be an alternative.
Can I do it myself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
How we work
Materials are released carefully and removed whole where possible, without breaking, dropping or power tools. It helps if we can park nearby. In winter, the light goes in Atherfield Green by about 4:05pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.
- Share photos, the postcode and any survey or test you have
- We identify the material and work out whether the job is licensed, notifiable or non-licensed
- A written quote follows, covering method, controls and disposal
- On the agreed date we set up the work area and remove the material carefully
- We clean the area and send the consignment note
Before we arrive
- Mention any damage before we arrive
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
- Do not disturb the material before we get there
Getting a price
If you have a survey or test result, include it when you ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page; it helps us quote accurately.

- Tell us about any previous survey
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Tell us about parking and access
Avoid these
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris.

Duty holders and landlords in Atherfield Green

Atherfield Green questions
Do you come out to small villages like Atherfield Green?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Is asbestos common in Atherfield Green homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
What does licensed work mean?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice.
Can I stay at home during removal?
It depends on the job: outdoor work rarely means leaving. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
