Asbestos removal in St Mary's
Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. From asbestos found during building work and Artex ceilings before renovation, we cover floor tiles, cement roof sheets and flue pipes and more.
In a smaller place like St Mary's, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, reached through gardens and drives. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

St Mary's properties and asbestos removal
St Mary's is about 1 mile south of Southampton, in Southampton. Properties in St Mary's range from older houses to newer estates and commercial buildings, and anything built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. St Mary's is one of 40 places in Southampton we cover.
For non-domestic buildings like Hope Community School Southampton, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty. If you let property near Southampton Central station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal. Parts of the New Forest National Park are within about 7 miles of St Mary's. Rural removal jobs nearby often mean planning access across yards and fields. St Mary's is within about a mile of the coast; on exposed coastal sites, wind affects when outdoor removal can go ahead.

Choosing the right option
Covering or sealing asbestos is sometimes an alternative to removal, but the asbestos is still there and needs recording for future work. A price that looks too good to be true often is: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
Why us?
- Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
- Jobs planned to HSE guidance

Should you do it yourself?

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.

Common reasons for removal jobs in St Mary's
Selling or letting a property can prompt removal of obvious materials, although sound material can often stay.
In older properties, we often see:
- Cement flues and gutters
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Garage roof sheets
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
Older buildings in St Mary's, near St Mary's Church or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal.
