Asbestos removal in Highcliffe
How asbestos removal works in Highcliffe
Removal is not always the answer. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we will say so. Whether it’s finds during refurbishment and old sheds and coal bunkers, we deal with gutters and downpipes, water tanks and textured coatings.
In a smaller place like Highcliffe, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, with access through the garden or drive. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

For landlords, agents and businesses
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
DIY and asbestos
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
What happens next
Making good, such as a new roof or ceiling, is generally a separate job, so plan it before the removal date.
Once we are done:
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
Things not to do
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
How we price asbestos removal
The biggest factors in the price are:
- Location, parking and any London charges
- The size of the job
- The category of work
- Material and condition
A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
Sending photos
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- Cracks or breaks
- The parking area
- A picture of the whole area

Materials, one by one
Water tanks and flues
Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.
Textured coatings
We soften coatings and remove them wet, never sanding or dry scraping. Larger-scale steam or gel removal is notifiable non-licensed work.
Questions from Highcliffe
Could my house in Highcliffe contain asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Highcliffe can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How far is Highcliffe from London?
We cover Highcliffe, about 60 miles from central London.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
Sometimes: lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, while most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
What does removal cost?
There is no fixed price: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.
What we do and don’t cover
A few things to be aware of:
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is generally separate
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.

Your options compared
