Asbestos removal in Bouldnor: local notes
Bouldnor is about 5 miles south-east of Lymington, in the Isle of Wight. In Bouldnor, we hear from homeowners, landlords and businesses. We cover all 125 towns and villages across the Isle of Wight, from the larger towns to small villages. Our area stretches from Bouldnor to Southampton (about 15 miles away).
Older buildings in Bouldnor, near Church of St Swithin (old) or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we test before we plan. For non-domestic buildings like Yarmouth Church of England Aided Primary School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty. The coast is within about 3 miles of Bouldnor, where exposed sites can be windy, so outdoor removal is planned around the forecast.
We handle removal jobs in every part of PO41. Streets in the area include The Vineyard, Port La Salle and Waters Edge, and asbestos removal is available on all of them. For properties just outside Bouldnor, we cover Yarmouth (1 mile west), Cranmore (1 mile east), Hamstead (2 miles north-east), Shalfleet (3 miles east) and Thorns Beach (4 miles north). Further out, we also cover Newport (8 miles east), Ryde (14 miles east), Cowes (8 miles north-east), Sandown (14 miles east), Shanklin (14 miles east) and Ventnor (14 miles south-east). Remote sites take a little more planning, so ask early.
Bouldnor is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we’ll plan the journey.

What happens next
If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Share any survey or test results
- Tell us about parking and access
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
What to avoid
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
Good to know
It’s worth knowing what asbestos removal does and does not cover:
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
- Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is generally separate
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before you book.
What we deal with
- Bitumen roof felt
- Gutters and downpipes
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Panels and boards
- Flue pipes
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Garage and shed roofs
- Soffits (cement)
- Artex and textured coatings
- Water tanks
Prices and what affects them
Every quote reflects:
- Waste quantity and disposal
- How much there is
- Licensed or non-licensed
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
Sometimes a test shows removal isn’t needed, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

Which option is right?
DIY removal might look cheaper, but HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and the waste still has to go to a permitted site with the right paperwork. Our quotes are clear about VAT.

What it might be made of
Asbestos cement
Cement products make up most removal jobs: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. It’s kept damp and removed whole where possible.
Floor tiles
Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with sanders or grinders.
Common questions in Bouldnor
Is asbestos common in Bouldnor homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Bouldnor may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Bouldnor and the area around Lymington Pier station?
Yes, we cover Bouldnor and the area towards Lymington Pier station, about 4.2 miles north-west.
Can asbestos be left in place?
Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is normally needed.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
