Asbestos help in Liss
Should you do it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Asbestos removal for Liss properties
Asbestos materials are kept wet, taken out whole where we can, and never cut with power tools, to keep fibre release as low as possible. Whether it’s old sheds and coal bunkers and asbestos found during building work, we deal with cement roof sheets, flue pipes and water tanks and more.
In a smaller place like Liss, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, reached through gardens and drives. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

Where asbestos turns up
Some owners remove visible asbestos before a sale or letting, though in good condition it doesn’t always need to go.
In older properties, we often see:
- Cement water tanks in lofts
- Cement flues and gutters
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Floor tiles before a new floor
For non-domestic buildings like Liss Infant School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.

Liss: your questions answered
Do you cover Liss from London?
Liss is about 47 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do older homes in Liss have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
If it hasn’t been identified, yes. The right method depends on what the material is.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
Do I need to move out?
For outdoor jobs, you can normally stay put. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
How quickly can you come out?
That depends on the work and current bookings. We will give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
