Asbestos removal near Steep

You don’t always have to remove asbestos. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we will tell you honestly when that’s the case. We often deal with textured coatings, flue pipes and gutters and downpipes, and typical jobs are garage roof sheets and Artex before plastering.

In Steep, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so you know where you stand.

Service details

Looking after things afterwards

If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, as the method may need to change.

After we have finished:

  • File the consignment note
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Let neighbours know if work is near them
  • Book the replacement before removal

Things not to do

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste.

Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.

Your options compared

Should it come out? Sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

What you get

  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing
  • Jobs planned to HSE guidance
  • Clear written quotes
  • Records for your files

Removal jobs in Steep

Steep is about 1 mile north of Petersfield, in Hampshire. Homes, landlords and businesses in Steep contact us for removal jobs about all kinds of jobs. Steep is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire we cover. We work right across the region, from Steep to Southampton (about 21 miles away).

For non-domestic buildings like Steep Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty. Older buildings in Steep, near Church of All Saints or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we test before we plan. Parts of the South Downs National Park are within about 2 miles of Steep; removing asbestos from rural buildings there follows the same rules, with access across yards and fields to plan.

Should you do it yourself?

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.

What it costs

Our quotes take into account:

  • The category of work
  • The size of the job
  • The number of samples or the size of the building
  • Parking and access charges

We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

Photos that help

Before you send photos, a few tips:

  • A clear close-up
  • Cracks or breaks

FAQs for Steep

Do you cover Steep from London?

We cover Steep, about 49 miles from central London.

Do you cover Steep and the area around Petersfield station?

Yes. Petersfield station is about 1.4 miles south of Steep, and we cover both.

Which asbestos work needs a licence?

It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.

Will I get the price in writing?

Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.

Do I need a test or a survey?

Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

What paperwork will I get?

A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.

Can asbestos be left in place?

Often it can stay: if it’s in good condition and out of the way, it can stay. Record it and keep an eye on it.

Can you help with a shop or office?

We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.

Materials we deal with

Textured coatings

Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.

Water tanks and flues

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

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
