Asbestos removal for Barnsole properties

In areas like Barnsole, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, where access across fields or yards needs planning. We start with a clear answer: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

Choosing the right option
Dealing with asbestos before work starts keeps the project on track, when everything has to wait for it to be dealt with. Doing several things in one visit can help, such as testing several materials at once.
Why choose us
- Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations
- Homes, rented property and workplaces
- No removal until we know what it is
- Legal disposal, with paperwork

A closer look at the materials
Floor tiles
Black bitumen adhesive may need treating separately.
Water tanks and flues
A Gas Safe engineer disconnects any gas appliance first.
What it costs
Every quote reflects:
- The type of material and its condition
- Disposal costs
- How much there is
- Licensed or non-licensed
There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
What to photograph
A few photos can save a site visit:
- A picture of the whole area
- Cracks or breaks
- Labels, if any
- Approximate dimensions
Unsure whether you need a test, a survey or removal? Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749, and we’ll recommend the right option.
After the job
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you get the consignment note showing where the waste went.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Book the replacement before removal
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Tell us about parking and access
Avoid these
Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of.
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
Questions from Barnsole
Do you cover Barnsole from London?
Barnsole is about 61 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you work near Adisham station?
Yes, we cover Barnsole and the area towards Adisham station, about 3.1 miles south-west.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Can asbestos be left in place?
Often it can stay: if it’s in good condition and out of the way, it can stay. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials must only be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Step by step
If we find more than expected, or something different, we stop and talk to you, rather than carrying on regardless. On the day, we check the area and talk you through the plan first. Late-December sunset in Barnsole is about 3:50pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.
