Asbestos removal near Lodsworth
Higher-risk materials such as pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, which must be carried out by a contractor holding an HSE licence. We’ll explain what applies to your job in Lodsworth. People often contact us about old cold water tanks and old sheds and coal bunkers, involving floor tiles, cement soffits and water tanks.
Rural removal near Lodsworth can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Doing it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

What else we do in Lodsworth
Why people call us in Lodsworth
Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, so their removal is licensed.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Materials found mid-project
- Artex before plastering
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Old cold water tanks
Older buildings in Lodsworth, near The Parish Church of St Peter or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we test before we plan.
What to look for in a quote

- The method and controls
- Any exclusions
- What paperwork you get
Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors in the price are:
- How many samples are needed
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- The type of material and its condition
- Licensed or non-licensed
A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
Photos that help
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:
- Damaged areas
- An idea of size
- The access route
- Where we could park
Every job is quoted in writing. Just call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form with the details, including any survey or test you already have.
After the job
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you get the consignment note showing where the waste went.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Tell us about parking and access
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
Things not to do
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Lodsworth questions
Do older homes in Lodsworth have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Lodsworth can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you come out to small villages like Lodsworth?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Where does the asbestos go?
We bag or wrap it, label it and take it to a permitted site, with a consignment note as your record.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always: sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Unless it’s already been identified, yes: the way it’s removed depends on the material.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings generally are not licensed.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Lodsworth must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
Options to consider in Lodsworth
Very cheap quotes can be a warning sign: proper controls, protective equipment, a registered waste carrier and disposal cost money. Always ask for the consignment note. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
