Fareham Common questions
Could my house in Fareham Common contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Fareham Common may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Fareham Common and the area around Fareham station?
Yes. Fareham station is about 0.8 miles west of Fareham Common, and we cover both.
Where does the asbestos go?
We bag or wrap it, label it and take it to a permitted site, and you receive the consignment note.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The removal method depends on the material.
Can I stay at home during removal?
For outdoor jobs, you can normally stay put. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
Do you work in Fareham Common?
Yes, we do: Fareham Common is within the area we cover in Hampshire. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.

Why people call us in Fareham Common
Not all asbestos materials are equal: lagging and insulating board release fibres much more easily than asbestos cement, which is why that work is licensed.
People usually contact us about one of these:
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Old cold water tanks
- Asbestos found during building work
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
Older buildings in Fareham Common, near Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal.
