Common reasons for removal jobs in Boarhunt
Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so pre-2000 buildings across Hampshire may contain it.
In older properties, we often see:
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
- Asbestos found during building work
- Debris left from a previous job
If you let property near Portchester station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.

After the job
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you get the consignment note showing where the waste went.
To avoid problems in future:
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Share any survey or test results
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
What to avoid
Don’t jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
Doing it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Materials, one by one
Floor tiles
Black bitumen adhesive may need treating separately.
Water tanks and flues

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then get advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.

How much does asbestos removal cost in Boarhunt?
There’s no fixed price: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
In many cases it can stay: sound material that will not be disturbed can be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
How dangerous is asbestos?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
