How asbestos removal works in Lindford
You do not always have to remove asbestos. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we’ll tell you honestly when that’s the case. Whether it’s loft water tanks and garage roof sheets, we deal with floor tiles, flue pipes and cement soffits.
In towns and villages like Lindford, we often remove garage roofs and old sheds, with access through the garden or drive. Every job comes with paperwork, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Why people call us in Lindford
Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so pre-2000 buildings across Hampshire may contain it.
You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Garage roof sheets
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Textured coatings
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
In older buildings across Lindford, asbestos may be in later additions, so we test before we plan.
What your quote should include
- How the work will be done, and the controls used
- Waste disposal and the consignment note
- What paperwork you get
- Which areas and materials are covered
Afterwards
If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- File the consignment note
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
Things not to do
Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
A closer look at the materials
Textured coatings
We soften coatings and remove them wet, never sanding or dry scraping. Large-scale steam or gel removal must be notified.
Bitumen and felt
Bitumen felts can contain asbestos, which is usually well bound.
What it costs
Quotes vary because of:
- The category of work
- The type of material and its condition
- How much there is
- Location, parking and any London charges
Doing several things in one visit can help, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
Photos that help
When you send photos, these help most:
- A rough size or measurement
- Where we could park
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- A clear close-up
If you have a survey or test result, include it when you send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749; it helps us quote accurately.
DIY and asbestos
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
Step by step
We unfix materials and take them out in whole pieces where we can, never broken up, dropped or cut with power tools. While we work, the area stays out of bounds. We plan outdoor jobs in Lindford to finish before dark: in late December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:20pm.

- We confirm what the material is and what category of work it falls into
- A written quote follows, covering method, controls and disposal
- On the agreed date we set up the work area and remove the material carefully

Weighing up your options
Should it come out? If the material is in good condition and will not be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.

Common questions in Lindford
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Do you cover Lindford and the area around Liphook station?
Yes, we cover Lindford and the area towards Liphook station, about 3.9 miles south-east.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
It depends on the material and the job. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed work; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then ask for advice.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
