Asbestos removal for Bashley
Asbestos removal in Bashley
You do not always have to remove asbestos. If it’s sound and not in the way, it may be better left, and we’ll say so. People often contact us about textured coatings and finds during refurbishment, including floor tiles, gutters and downpipes and water tanks.
Rural removal near Bashley can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. Nothing is added to the job that you do not need.

DIY and asbestos
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Afterwards
If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.
To avoid problems in future:
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Book the replacement before removal
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
Don’ts
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.

Sending photos
Photos often save us a visit:
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces

- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 to get started.

Bashley: your questions answered
Do you cover Bashley and the area around New Milton station?
Yes. New Milton station is about 1.3 miles south of Bashley, and we cover both.
Do you work on properties in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Make the area safe first: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
