Asbestos removal in St Mary Bourne
About our asbestos removal in St Mary Bourne
Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If it hasn’t been tested, we sample it first, since the right method depends on what it is. Whether it’s outbuildings with cement roofs and old waste on site, we deal with cement soffits, floor tiles and cement roof sheets.
In St Mary Bourne, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so the route is planned in advance. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

DIY and asbestos
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Weighing up your options
Dealing with asbestos before work starts keeps the project on track, when everything has to wait for it to be dealt with. Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, because the material is clear.

Questions from St Mary Bourne
Do you cover St Mary Bourne from London?
We cover St Mary Bourne, about 59 miles from central London.
Could my house in St Mary Bourne contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
You cannot tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then get advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.

Where asbestos turns up
Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so pre-2000 buildings across Hampshire may contain it.
In older properties, we often see:
- Textured coatings
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Cement flues and gutters
- Materials found mid-project
If you let property near Whitchurch (Hampshire) station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.
