Weighing up your options
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. There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.

Where asbestos turns up
Materials deteriorate with age: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is often when people decide to remove them.
Typical jobs in Fawley Bottom include:
- Old flues
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Old waste on site
- Old cold water tanks
In older properties in Fawley Bottom, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we identify materials before planning removal.
