  2. We confirm what the material is and what category of work it falls into
  3. We quote in writing, including the waste
  4. On the agreed date we set up the work area and remove the material carefully

Asbestos removal near Standford

We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, so fibre release stays as low as possible. Whether it’s cement flues and gutters and old sheds and coal bunkers, we cover water tanks, floor tiles and gutters and downpipes.

In a village like Standford, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

What’s included, and what is not

It’s worth knowing what asbestos removal does and doesn’t cover:

  • Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is normally separate
  • Some jobs must be notified first, which affects the start date
  • We do not remove anything until it’s been identified

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.

What we deal with

  • Artex and textured coatings
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Soffits (cement)
  • Water tanks
  • Panels and boards
  • Flue pipes
  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Asbestos cement sheets
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Bitumen roof felt

Service details

Prices and what affects them

What changes the cost:

  • The number of samples or the size of the building
  • The category of work
  • How much waste there is
  • Location, parking and any London charges

How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

Photos that help

Photos often save us a visit:

  • A rough size or measurement
  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • Labels, if any
  • How we’d reach it

Unsure whether you need a test, a survey or removal? Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749, and we will advise.

What we deal with in Standford

Old materials break down over time: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is when removal comes up.

Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:

  • Floor tiles before a new floor
  • Old sheds and coal bunkers
  • Artex before plastering
  • Asbestos found during building work

In a school like Weyford Nursery and Primary School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use.

Choosing an asbestos contractor

Your questions about asbestos removal in Standford

Do you cover Standford and the area around Liphook station?

Yes, we cover Standford and the area towards Liphook station, about 2.9 miles south-east.

Do you cover Standford from London?

Standford is about 42 miles from central London, well within our area.

Can I remove asbestos myself?

HSE advises against removing asbestos yourself. Licensed materials must only be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor.

Do you test before removing asbestos in Standford?

Unless it’s already been identified, yes: the method depends on what the material is.

Can you help with a shop or office?

Yes. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.

How can I get a price?

Start with the postcode and a description of the material. Then fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.

Can I stay at home during removal?

For outdoor jobs, you can generally stay put. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.

What does licensed work mean?

Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.

Doing it yourself?

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

Options to consider in Standford

Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and won’t be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is typically right. The cost of asbestos removal depends on the job: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.

Why choose us

  • Domestic and commercial work
  • Identify first, remove only when needed
  • Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone
  • Reports and results you can share

Materials we deal with

Insulating board and lagging

Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.

Water tanks and flues

Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.

Duty holders and landlords in Standford

If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.

For managing agents and freeholders in Standford, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.
