About our asbestos removal in Dibden Purlieu
Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. We often deal with textured coatings, floor tiles and cement roof sheets, and typical jobs are garage roof sheets and finds during refurbishment.
In a smaller place like Dibden Purlieu, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, with access through the garden or drive. We explain what we find in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Dibden Purlieu
Some owners remove visible asbestos before a sale or letting, although sound material can often stay.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Garage roofs and whole garages
- Cement water tanks in lofts
- Artex before plastering
Older buildings in Dibden Purlieu, near St. Andrew's Church and Centre or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we test before we plan.

Can I do it myself?

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.
Choosing the right option
Sealing or enclosing is sometimes possible, but it remains in place and has to be recorded. Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

Questions from Dibden Purlieu
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Do you work near Southampton Town Quay station?

Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: close it off and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
Sometimes: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings generally are not licensed.
When can you start?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
Can I stay at home during removal?
That depends: outdoor jobs do not usually affect you. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we have finished.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings usually aren’t licensed.

- Location, parking and any London charges
