How asbestos removal works in Gosport
Every removal job in Gosport is planned first: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified. Typical materials include gutters and downpipes, water tanks and cement soffits, and typical jobs are old floor tiles and black adhesive and garage roofs and whole garages.
Houses and local businesses around Gosport often have asbestos cement in roofs and outbuildings. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, for your records.

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Gosport must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
For managing agents and freeholders in Gosport, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.

Helpful guides
Choosing the right option
Be wary of a price that seems too low: proper controls, protective equipment, a registered waste carrier and disposal cost money. Always ask for the consignment note. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

What we do and don’t cover

- Garage and shed roofs
- Soffits (cement)

After we’ve finished in Gosport

FAQs for Gosport
Do you work near Portsmouth Harbour station?
Yes, we cover Gosport and the area towards Portsmouth Harbour station, about 2 miles east.
Is asbestos common in Gosport homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
What paperwork will I get?
It depends on what we do: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Is asbestos dangerous?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.
What does licensed work mean?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Where asbestos turns up
Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and insulating board release fibres much more easily than asbestos cement, so their removal is licensed.
These are some of the things we deal with in Gosport:
- Debris left from a previous job
- Garage roofs and whole garages
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Artex ceilings before renovation
If you let property near Portsmouth Harbour station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.
