What we deal with in Roughdown
Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: whatever the work will touch should come out first.
Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Garage roofs and whole garages
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Old cold water tanks
- Materials found mid-project
If you let property near Netley station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.
