How asbestos removal works in Lyndhurst
If your builder has found suspect material in Lyndhurst, stop work in that area and keep people away. We’ll identify it and plan what happens next. Whether it’s garage roof sheets and debris left from a previous job, we deal with textured coatings, water tanks and floor tiles and more.
In a smaller place like Lyndhurst, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, with access through the garden or drive. We only recommend work that’s needed, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Materials, one by one
Textured coatings
We soften coatings and remove them wet, never sanding or dry scraping. Large-scale steam or gel removal must be notified.
Floor tiles
Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with sanders or grinders.
Common reasons for removal jobs in Lyndhurst
Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so buildings across Hampshire built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
In older properties, we often see:
- Old flues
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Asbestos found during building work
In older buildings across Lyndhurst, asbestos may be in later additions, so we test before we plan.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Lyndhurst must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Doing it yourself?
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.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
FAQs for Lyndhurst
Could my house in Lyndhurst contain asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Lyndhurst may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work on properties in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
Sometimes: lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, while most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Where does the asbestos go?
We bag or wrap it, label it and take it to a permitted site, and you receive the consignment note.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job.
