Why people call us in Popley
Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: anything the work would disturb should be dealt with first.
In older properties, we often see:
- Loft water tanks
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
- Floor tiles before a new floor
In older buildings across Popley, asbestos may be in later additions, so we test before we plan.

Asbestos removal near Popley
Once the material is out, we clean up and bag or wrap the waste, with a consignment note for your records. From cement flues and gutters and cement water tanks in lofts, we deal with floor tiles, textured coatings and water tanks.
Homes in Popley with bigger gardens can have more than one cement-roofed building, which can often be dealt with together. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Options to consider in Popley
Dealing with asbestos before work starts keeps the project on track, rather than halting work when it’s found. Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.
Why us?
- Samples analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Legal disposal, with paperwork
- Covering London and the South East
- Jobs planned to HSE guidance
See our prices page or our cost guide.
Afterwards
If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, for anyone working there later.
Some practical advice:
- Book the replacement before removal
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Let us know where we can park
What to avoid
Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Duty holders and landlords in Popley
If your business premises in Popley were built before 2000, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
Doing it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
What it might be made of
Water tanks and flues
Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.

FAQs for Popley
Do you work near Basingstoke station?
Yes. Basingstoke station is about 1.1 miles south of Popley, and we cover both.
Is asbestos common in Popley homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, though some need a visit first.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Prices and what affects them
Prices vary with:
- Location, parking and any London charges
- Disposal costs
- What the material is and its state
- Access to the area
Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
Photos that help
What to photograph:
- Cracks or breaks
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- A picture of the whole area
- An idea of size
