About our asbestos removal in Ramsdean
Licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, which must be carried out by a contractor holding an HSE licence. We will tell you if your job in Ramsdean falls into that category. Typical materials include cement soffits, flue pipes and gutters and downpipes, and people usually contact us about outbuildings with cement roofs and cement water tanks in lofts.
In a village like Ramsdean, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

Looking after things afterwards
If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.
A few practical points:
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Book the replacement before removal
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Let us know where we can park
Avoid these
Do not let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of.
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Typical removal jobs in Ramsdean
Most removal happens because building work would disturb asbestos: whatever the work will touch should come out first.
You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Garage roof sheets
- Old cold water tanks
- Asbestos found during building work
Older buildings in Ramsdean, near Church of St John the Evangelist or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal.

Should you do it yourself?
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Prices and what affects them
Every quote reflects:
- The category of work
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- How much there is
- Location, parking and any London charges
A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.

Questions from Ramsdean
Do you cover Ramsdean and the area around Petersfield station?
Yes. Petersfield station is about 2.3 miles east of Ramsdean, and we cover both.
Do you cover small places like Ramsdean?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
How much does asbestos removal cost in Ramsdean?
Every job is priced individually: the material, the amount, its condition, access and the waste all matter.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings normally aren’t licensed.
Does weather affect the work?
It depends on the job: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
What it might be made of
Insulating board and lagging
Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.
Responsibilities for owners
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Weighing up your options
Should it come out? If the material is in good condition and won’t be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is generally right. When comparing quotes, check what’s included: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.
