Asbestos help in Pennington
Can I do it myself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.

Pennington: your questions answered
Do you cover Pennington and the area around Lymington Town station?
Yes, we cover Pennington and the area towards Lymington Town station, about 1.2 miles north-east.
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
When can you start?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
In many cases it can stay: if it’s in good condition and out of the way, it can stay. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
What happens to the waste?
It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site, and you receive the consignment note.

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.
Going forward:
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Share any survey or test results
- Tell us about parking and access
What to avoid
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
Responsibilities for owners
If you manage or own a block in Pennington, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Pennington
Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, so their removal is licensed.
In older properties, we often see:
- Old cold water tanks
- Garage roof sheets
- Old waste on site
- Artex ceilings before renovation
For non-domestic buildings like Priestlands School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.
