Asbestos removal near New Copse
Which option is right?
Be wary of a price that seems too low: controls, equipment and legal disposal all cost money. Ask to see the waste paperwork. Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, because the material is clear.

How asbestos removal works in New Copse
In homes, in New Copse as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. HSE treats work on these as non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed in most cases, but it still needs the right controls. From materials found mid-project and garage roof sheets, we cover floor tiles, cement soffits and cement roof sheets and more.
In New Copse, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so you know where you stand.

Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors in the price are:
- Access to the area
- How many samples are needed
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- Parking and access charges
When comparing quotes, check what’s included: scope, method, waste disposal and paperwork.
Sending photos
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:
- An overall view
- An idea of size
- Cracks or breaks
- A clear close-up
Every job is quoted in writing. Just use our quote form or call 07833 053 749 with the details, including any survey or test you already have.
Doing it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Common questions in New Copse
How far is New Copse from London?

Do you cover New Copse and the area around Alton station?

Is asbestos removal licensed?
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.
Can you quote from photos?

Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.
What does removal cost?
Every job is priced individually: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
For businesses and landlords in New Copse
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
Materials we deal with
Textured coatings
Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.
Insulating board and lagging
Insulating board, lagging and sprayed coatings are licensed work in most cases.

Looking after things afterwards
If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.
Once we are done:
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
Avoid these
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.
What we do and do not cover
A few things to be aware of:
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is normally separate
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before you book.
