Your questions about asbestos removal in Meonstoke
How far is Meonstoke from London?
Meonstoke is about 57 miles from central London, well within our area.
Is asbestos common in Meonstoke homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
Do I need to move out?
That depends: outdoor work rarely means leaving. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.
What does licensed work mean?
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. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
How dangerous is asbestos?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
DIY and asbestos
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
For businesses and landlords in Meonstoke
If you run a business from older premises in Meonstoke, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
Limits to be aware of
What’s in and what’s out:
- Some jobs must be notified first, which affects the start date
- We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified
- Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Afterwards
If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Tell us about parking and access
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
Avoid these
Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Typical removal jobs in Meonstoke
Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: whatever the work will touch should come out first.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Garage roofs and whole garages
- Loft water tanks
- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
- Artex ceilings before renovation
Older buildings in Meonstoke, near Church of St Andrew or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so materials are identified first.
