What we deal with in High Cross

Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so pre-2000 buildings across Hampshire may contain it.

Common situations in older properties include:

  • Asbestos garages
  • Old flues
  • Textured coatings
  • Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos

In older buildings across High Cross, asbestos may be in later additions, so we identify materials before planning removal.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
  • What category of work it is
  • What paperwork you get
  • How the work will be done, and the controls used

Duty holders and landlords in High Cross

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

Which option is right?

Very cheap quotes can be a warning sign: proper controls, protective equipment, a registered waste carrier and disposal cost money. Always ask for the consignment note. We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

What you get

  • Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
  • Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing
  • Homes, rented property and workplaces

Prices and what affects them

These are the main things that affect the price of asbestos removal:

  • The number of samples or the size of the building
  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space

When comparing quotes, check what’s included: scope, method, waste disposal and paperwork.

Helping us quote

  • Labels, if any
  • A rough size or measurement

Should you do it yourself?

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

A closer look at the materials

Floor tiles

Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with sanders or grinders.

Water tanks and flues

Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.

What happens next

Making good, such as a new roof or ceiling, is typically a separate job, so plan it in advance.

Keeping things safe:

  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Book the replacement before removal
  • Send photos of the material and the access
  • Tell us about parking and access

What to avoid

Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.

Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

FAQs for High Cross

Do you work near Petersfield station?

Yes, we cover High Cross and the area towards Petersfield station, about 2.6 miles south-east.

Do you come out to small villages like High Cross?

We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.

What if my house is newer?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.

Is asbestos dangerous?

Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, so identifying it before work is important.

What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?

Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then get advice.

What if asbestos is found during building work?

Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We will identify it and advise on removal.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.

Can asbestos go in my bin?

No: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
