Asbestos help in Shalden
Asbestos removal for Shalden properties
Removal is planned, not improvised: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified, before anyone starts. We often deal with water tanks, flue pipes and gutters and downpipes, and typical jobs are asbestos garages and old floor tiles and black adhesive.
In Shalden, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so the route is planned in advance. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, for your records.

Which option is right?
Should it come out? Sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is typically right. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
Why us?
- Samples analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Legal disposal, with paperwork
- Domestic and commercial work

Materials, one by one
Bitumen and felt
They’re removed by hand.
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.
Duty holders and landlords in Shalden
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
Where asbestos turns up
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so pre-2000 buildings across Hampshire may contain it.
These come up again and again:
- Textured coatings
- Asbestos garages
- Old flues
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
Landlords near Alton station often time removal for when a property is empty.
