Asbestos removal near Ropley
Every removal job in Ropley is planned first: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified, before anyone starts. Typical materials include textured coatings, water tanks and cement soffits, and people usually contact us about cement water tanks in lofts and flue pipes, gutters and downpipes.
In Ropley, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, for your records.

- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Let us know where we can park
- File the consignment note
Don’ts
Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Ropley
Is asbestos common in Ropley homes?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Ropley can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How far is Ropley from London?
Ropley is about 51 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you work in Ropley?
Yes. We cover Ropley and the surrounding area as part of Hampshire. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.
What does licensed work mean?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
What does removal cost?
There is no fixed price: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.

Limits to be aware of
Here’s what asbestos removal covers, and what it does not:
- We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is typically separate
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

- Gutters and downpipes

Doing it yourself?
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
