Looking after things afterwards
Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you get the consignment note showing where the waste went.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
Avoid these
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of.
What affects the price in Chandler's Ford
The price of asbestos removal depends mainly on:
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- Material and condition
- The quantity or area
- Location, parking and any London charges
Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

Choosing the right option
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. Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.

Materials, one by one
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.
Insulating board and lagging
Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.
What we do and don’t cover
What’s in and what’s out:
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is usually separate
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before you book.
What we deal with
- Gutters and downpipes
- Artex and textured coatings
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Bitumen roof felt
- Water tanks
- Soffits (cement)
- Panels and boards
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Garage and shed roofs
- Flue pipes
Step by step
We unfix materials and take them out in whole pieces where we can, never broken up, dropped or cut with power tools. We keep the work area clear of other people while we work, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere. In winter, the light goes in Chandler's Ford by about 4:00pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.

Questions from Chandler's Ford
Is asbestos common in Chandler's Ford homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Chandler's Ford can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How far is Chandler's Ford from London?
We cover Chandler's Ford, about 66 miles from central London.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then get in touch and we will advise.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
What does removal cost?
It depends on the material, how much there is, its condition, access and disposal. We quote each job individually.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
