Asbestos removal for Belbins

Asbestos removal near Belbins

After removal, the work area is cleaned and the waste is double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken away, and you get the waste paperwork. People often contact us about old waste on site and old flues, including gutters and downpipes, floor tiles and water tanks.

In a village like Belbins, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, where access across fields or yards needs planning. Paperwork is part of every job, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

DIY and asbestos

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.

How we price asbestos removal

Every quote reflects:

  • How many samples are needed
  • Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
  • Waste quantity and disposal
  • The size of the job

Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, such as testing several materials at once.

Helping us quote

Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them without disturbing anything:

  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it
  • Street parking nearby
  • Damaged areas
  • Approximate dimensions

Share the postcode, a short description and photos: use our quote form or call 07833 053 749, and we will reply with a quote.

Good to know

So you know what to expect:

  • Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
  • We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified

If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.

More about this service

Belbins: your questions answered

Is asbestos common in Belbins homes?

Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Do you work near Romsey station?

Yes, we cover Belbins and the area towards Romsey station, about 1.4 miles south.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.

How do I get a quote?

Just 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.

Does all asbestos have to be removed?

Often it can stay: sound material that won’t be disturbed can be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.

Do you cover Belbins?

Yes. We cover Belbins and the surrounding area as part of Hampshire. Tell us the postcode and what you need.

Can I put asbestos in a skip?

Never: skips and household bins cannot take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.

Can I stay at home during removal?

It depends on the job: outdoor jobs do not generally affect you. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we have finished.

Afterwards

If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, as the method may need to change.

Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:

  • Book the replacement before removal
  • File the consignment note
  • Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
  • Share any survey or test results

Don’ts

Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.

Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.

For businesses and landlords in Belbins

If you run a business from older premises in Belbins, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Belbins, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

Materials we deal with

Textured coatings

Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.

Bitumen and felt

We remove them without cutting with power tools.

Step by step

We start by setting up and segregating the work area, then keep the material damp throughout. If anything unexpected turns up, we stop and talk to you. In winter, the light goes in Belbins by about 4:00pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.

  1. Describe the material and send pictures
  2. We test it if needed and plan the job
  3. You get a written quote, including waste disposal
  4. The material is removed safely
  5. The area is cleaned and you get the consignment note

Before we arrive

  • Dig out previous surveys
  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Keep children and pets away on the day
