Asbestos help in Steep Marsh
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
How asbestos removal works in Steep Marsh
Much of the asbestos found in homes is asbestos cement, textured coating or floor tiles. Work on these is usually non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls. Typical jobs include garage roof sheets and old flues, involving flue pipes, textured coatings and cement roof sheets.
In Steep Marsh, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. We start with a clear answer: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Steep Marsh
Do you work on properties in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you cover small places like Steep Marsh?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
What if the weather’s bad?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.
Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?
HSE advises the public not to try, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.
Do you work in Steep Marsh?
Yes, we do: Steep Marsh is within the area we cover in Hampshire. Send the postcode and a few photos and we will quote.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then ask for advice.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
What it costs
What changes the cost:
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- The category of work
- Parking and access charges
- The quantity or area
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.
Photos that help
The most useful photos are:
- Labels, if any
- Where we could park
- Damaged areas
- A rough size or measurement
Each job is priced individually. To start, call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
Afterwards
If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.
A few practical points:
- Book the replacement before removal
- Share any survey or test results
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere

Common reasons for removal jobs in Steep Marsh
Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so pre-2000 buildings across Hampshire may contain it.
Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
- Garage roof sheets
- Asbestos found during building work
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
In a school like Steep Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use.

DIY and asbestos
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
