Asbestos removal in Priddy's Hard
How asbestos removal works in Priddy's Hard
We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, so fibre release stays as low as possible. Common materials are water tanks, gutters and downpipes and cement roof sheets, and people generally contact us about sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos and old cold water tanks.
In Priddy's Hard, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. Paperwork is part of every job, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

A closer look at the materials
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
Cement products make up most removal jobs: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.

Priddy's Hard questions
Do you cover small places like Priddy's Hard?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you cover Priddy's Hard and the area around Portsmouth Harbour station?
Yes, we cover Priddy's Hard and the area towards Portsmouth Harbour station, about 1 mile south-east.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?
HSE’s advice is not to do it yourself, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
DIY and asbestos
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
How it works
We unfix materials and take them out in whole pieces where we can, never broken up, dropped or cut with power tools. Our team uses the right protective equipment, and use controls to keep dust down. Late-December sunset in Priddy's Hard is about 4:00pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.
