About our asbestos removal in Isington

Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. Typical materials include cement roof sheets, floor tiles and flue pipes, and typical jobs are Artex ceilings before renovation and cement flues and gutters.

In a village like Isington, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. We explain what we find in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Typical removal jobs in Isington

Not all asbestos materials are equal: lagging and insulating board release fibres much more easily than asbestos cement, which is why that work is licensed.

These come up again and again:

  • Textured coatings
  • Floor tiles before a new floor
  • Old cold water tanks
  • Cement flues and gutters

If you let property near Bentley (Hampshire) station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.

How to choose an asbestos contractor

Removing asbestos around Isington

Isington is about 4 miles north-east of Alton, in Hampshire. We cover Isington as part of Hampshire, for removal jobs of every size. Isington is one of 683 places in Hampshire where we work. Our nearest city page is Guildford, about 14 miles away.

Older buildings in Isington, near Church of the Holy Cross or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal. In a school like Binsted Church of England Primary School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use. Isington is within about 8 miles of the Surrey Hills National Landscape; removing asbestos from rural buildings there follows the same rules, with access across yards and fields to plan.

Materials we deal with

Water tanks and flues

Tanks and flues are disconnected first, then removed with minimal breakage.

Bitumen and felt

We remove them without cutting with power tools.

Step by step

On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, and keep the material wet as we work. It helps if we can park nearby, so let us know about any restrictions. Late-December sunset in Isington is about 4:00pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

  1. Describe the material and send pictures
  2. If it hasn’t been identified, we sample it first
  3. We plan the method, controls, waste and any notification, and send a quote
  4. We remove the material with controls to keep fibres down
  5. The area is cleaned and the waste goes to a permitted site, with paperwork

Before we arrive

  • Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Find any old asbestos reports
  • Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material

How to get a quote

Include any existing survey or test when you call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.

Helpful guides

After the job

Keep the consignment note with your property records: it proves legal disposal.

Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:

  • Send photos of the material and the access
  • Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Share any survey or test results
  • Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards

Don’ts

Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste.

DIY and asbestos

With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.

Prices and what affects them

The price of asbestos removal depends mainly on:

  • Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
  • How easy it is to reach
  • The type of material and its condition
  • The survey scope

A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

Helping us quote

Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:

  • A close-up from a safe distance
  • The access route
  • An overall view
  • An idea of size

Photos from a safe distance help: do not touch the material, just send them through our quote form.

What’s included, and what is not

Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:

  • Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
  • Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
  • Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Panels and boards
  • Asbestos cement sheets

Questions from Isington

Do you work on properties in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?

Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

Do you cover small places like Isington?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then get in touch and we will advise.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.

Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?

Not always. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed work; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.

How do I know if my property contains asbestos?

If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.

Can you help with a shop or office?

Yes. Send us the details of the premises.

Can asbestos go in my bin?

Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
