Can I do it myself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Hamble-le-Rice: your questions answered
Do you work near Hamble station?
Yes, we cover Hamble-le-Rice and the area towards Hamble station, about 0.8 miles north.
Do you cover Hamble-le-Rice from London?
Hamble-le-Rice is about 69 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
How dangerous is asbestos?
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 you work on commercial premises?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
