Common questions in South Wonston
Do older homes in South Wonston have asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in South Wonston can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How far is South Wonston from London?
We cover South Wonston, about 59 miles from central London.
How do I get a quote?
Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Should all asbestos be removed?
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.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
What it might be made of
Bitumen and felt
They’re removed by hand.
Floor tiles
Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with power tools.
Where asbestos turns up
Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: anything the work would disturb should be dealt with first.
You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Asbestos found during building work
- Garage roof sheets
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Artex before plastering
In older buildings across South Wonston, asbestos may be in later additions, so we identify materials before planning removal.

- A close-up from a safe distance
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
Photos and a postcode help us quote quickly: just ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
After the job
If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, for anyone working there later.
After we’ve finished:
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Book the replacement before removal
What to avoid
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
Responsibilities for owners
If you run a business from older premises in South Wonston, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
