Asbestos removal near East Meon

Asbestos removal for East Meon properties

Removal is not always the answer. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we will tell you honestly when that is the case. Typical materials include cement roof sheets, textured coatings and cement soffits, and typical jobs are asbestos found during building work and cement water tanks in lofts.

Rural removal near East Meon can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

DIY and asbestos

Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.

For businesses and landlords in East Meon

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in East Meon must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.

What affects the price in East Meon

The cost depends on:

  • The category of work
  • Material and condition
  • How much there is
  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space

Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

Sending photos

To help us quote quickly, send:

  • Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
  • An idea of size
  • Labels, if any
  • Where we could park

Photos from a safe distance help: send them through our contact page.

After the job

If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.

Keeping things safe:

  • Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
  • Photos of the material and the route in help
  • Let neighbours know if work is near them
  • Keep children and pets away on the day

What to avoid

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.

Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

Step by step

At the end, the work area is cleaned with suitable methods and checked, and we talk you through what was done. When we’re done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows. In winter, the light goes in East Meon by about 4:00pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

  1. Describe the material and send pictures

  3. We plan the job and send a written quote
  4. On the day we set up, keep the material damp and remove it whole where we can
  5. The area is cleaned and the waste goes to a permitted site, with paperwork

How to prepare

What to check before you book

East Meon questions

Do you come out to small villages like East Meon?

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.

Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the South Downs National Park?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?

HSE advises against removing asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials need a licensed contractor.

Can you help with a shop or office?

Yes. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.

Will I get the price in writing?

Always: you get the scope and price in writing.

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 I need to be at home?

Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.

Can asbestos be left in place?

Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.

What we do and do not cover

Worth knowing before booking:

  • We do not remove anything until it’s been identified
  • Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling

If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before you book.

What we deal with

  • Artex and textured coatings
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Flue pipes
  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Panels and boards
