About our asbestos removal in Bosham Hoe
Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If it hasn’t been tested, we sample it first, because the method depends on the material. From vinyl and thermoplastic tiles and sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos, we deal with flue pipes, textured coatings and cement soffits.
In Bosham Hoe, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so the route is planned in advance. We start with a clear answer: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Places near Bosham Hoe
How we price asbestos removal
The biggest factors in the price are:
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- Waste quantity and disposal
- How much there is
- What the material is and its state
Dealing with asbestos before building work is generally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
Helping us quote
Photos often save us a visit:
- Labels, if any
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- The access route
- A rough size or measurement
Unsure whether you need a test, a survey or removal? Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page, and we’ll advise.
Your options compared
Dealing with asbestos before work starts keeps the project on track, rather than halting work when it’s found. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
Why choose us
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
- Across London and the South East
- Legal disposal, with paperwork
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it

Responsibilities for owners
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Bosham Hoe, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Common questions in Bosham Hoe
Is asbestos common in Bosham Hoe homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work near Bosham station?
Yes, we cover Bosham Hoe and the area towards Bosham station, about 1.9 miles north.
Is asbestos dangerous?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, always.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

Before booking anyone
- What paperwork you get
- The scope of the job, in writing
- The method and controls
- Which laboratory analyses samples
What it might be made of
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.
Floor tiles
Black bitumen adhesive may need treating separately.
Looking after things afterwards
File the waste paperwork safely: it shows the asbestos was disposed of legally.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
Avoid these
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
