For businesses and landlords in Martyr Worthy
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Martyr Worthy questions
Do you come out to small villages like Martyr Worthy?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you work near Winchester station?
Yes, we cover Martyr Worthy and the area towards Winchester station, about 3.5 miles south-west.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings usually aren’t licensed.
When can you start?
It depends on the job and our diary. We will give you dates when we quote.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Do you work in Martyr Worthy?
We do: our area includes Martyr Worthy and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description and we’ll quote.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
After the job
Replacement work is normally separate, so plan it before the removal date.
Some practical advice:
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Let us know where we can park
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
Things not to do
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.

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.
Water tanks and flues
A Gas Safe engineer disconnects any gas appliance first.
Which option is right?
Should it come out? If the material is in good condition and won’t 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.
What you get
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
- Accredited laboratory results
- Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations
- Reports and results you can share

What we deal with in Martyr Worthy
Some owners remove visible asbestos before a sale or letting, though in good condition it doesn’t always need to go.
You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Garage roofs and whole garages
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
- Asbestos found during building work
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
For non-domestic buildings like Itchen Abbas Primary School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.
Before you book anyone
- What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof
- Whether the job needs notifying
- How fibres will be kept down
- Which laboratory analyses samples
The process
We start by setting up and segregating the work area, and keep the material wet as we work. Parking close by makes the day easier. We plan outdoor jobs in Martyr Worthy to finish before dark: in late December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:25pm.
- Tell us what needs removing and send photos
- We test the material if needed
- We plan the method, controls, waste and any notification, and send a quote
- On the day we set up, keep the material damp and remove it whole where we can
- We clean up, dispose of the waste legally and send the consignment note
Before we arrive
- Dig out previous surveys
- Clear access to the area, loft or garage
- Move things out of the way carefully
