Asbestos removal near Micheldever
Should you do it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
About our asbestos removal in Micheldever
We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, to keep fibre release as low as possible. We often deal with gutters and downpipes, cement soffits and flue pipes, and people generally contact us about old cold water tanks and old flues.
In a village like Micheldever, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. We identify materials before planning removal, as the right approach depends on the material.

The process
On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, then keep the material damp throughout. When we are done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows. Late-December sunset in Micheldever is about 4:00pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.

How we price asbestos removal
Every quote reflects:
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- Location, parking and any London charges
- The size of the job
- How much waste there is
Access makes a big difference to cost, so tell us about access.
Photos that help
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them without disturbing anything:
- The access route
- Cracks or breaks
- A clear close-up
- The parking area
We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page to get started.
Your options compared
Sealing or enclosing is sometimes possible, but the asbestos is still there and needs recording for future work. There’s no one-size price, as every job differs. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.
What you get
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
- Covering London and the South East
- Reports and results you can share
- Legal disposal, with paperwork
Read our prices page and the cost guide.
Looking after things afterwards
Replacement work is normally separate, so plan it before the removal date.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Book the replacement before removal
- Let us know where we can park
- Tell us about any previous survey
What to avoid
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Responsibilities for owners
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Micheldever: your questions answered
Do you cover small places like Micheldever?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Is asbestos common in Micheldever homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Can asbestos be left in place?
Often it can stay: sound material that won’t be disturbed can be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE advises the public not to try, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
What happens to the waste?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.
How quickly can you come out?
It depends on the job and our diary. We’ll give you dates when we quote.
Limits to be aware of
So you know what to expect:
- Making good is normally a separate job
- Some jobs must be notified first, so the timing needs planning
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
