How asbestos removal works in Kingsmead
We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, to keep fibre release as low as possible. Typical materials include cement soffits, flue pipes and textured coatings, and typical jobs are vinyl and thermoplastic tiles and materials found mid-project.
Rural removal near Kingsmead can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Can I do it myself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

Common materials
- Asbestos cement sheets

- Garage and shed roofs
- Artex and textured coatings
- Panels and boards
- Gutters and downpipes
- Soffits (cement)
Materials, one by one
Insulating board and lagging
Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.
Responsibilities for owners
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
What we deal with in Kingsmead
Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so pre-2000 buildings across Hampshire may contain it.
These come up again and again:
- Artex before plastering
- Asbestos found during building work
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
At a school such as Swanmore College of Technology, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.
Questions to ask before you book
- If the price includes VAT
- The method and controls

Kingsmead: your questions answered
Do you work near Botley station?
Yes. Botley station is about 4 miles west of Kingsmead, and we cover both.
Do you cover small places like Kingsmead?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
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.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
Often it can stay: if it’s in good condition and out of the way, it can stay. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
When can you start?
That depends on the work and current bookings. You’ll get available dates with the quote.
