About our asbestos removal in Locks Heath
Removal is planned, not improvised: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified, before anyone starts. From floor tiles before a new floor and old sheds and coal bunkers, we deal with flue pipes, floor tiles and cement roof sheets.
Properties in towns and villages like Locks Heath with larger plots may have several outbuildings with cement roofs. Nothing is added to the job that you do not need, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

File the waste paperwork safely: it shows the asbestos was disposed of legally.
Some practical advice:
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos

- File the consignment note
Don’ts
Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.
Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of.

Locks Heath: your questions answered
Do you cover Locks Heath and the area around Swanwick station?
Yes. Swanwick station is about 0.9 miles north of Locks Heath, and we cover both.
Do you cover Locks Heath from London?
We cover Locks Heath, about 67 miles from central London.
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.
How can I get a price?
Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
What does removal cost?
It depends on the material, how much there is, its condition, access and disposal. We quote each job individually.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, though some need a visit first.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Locks Heath, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Doing it yourself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.

Choosing the right option

Typical removal jobs in Locks Heath
Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so buildings across Hampshire built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
Common situations in older properties include:

- Textured coatings
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Old cold water tanks
For non-domestic buildings like Park Gate Primary School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.
