Asbestos removal in Titchfield Common
Much of the asbestos found in homes is asbestos cement, textured coating or floor tiles. HSE treats work on these as non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed in most cases, which still means proper controls. Typical jobs include floor tiles before a new floor and Artex before plastering, involving cement roof sheets, textured coatings and water tanks.
Homes in Titchfield Common with bigger gardens can have more than one cement-roofed building. We start with a clear answer: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

What happens next
File the waste paperwork safely: it proves legal disposal.
Some practical advice:
- Let us know where we can park
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
Avoid these
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
Doing it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Materials we deal with
Floor tiles
Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with power tools.
Insulating board and lagging
Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.
Titchfield Common: your questions answered
Could my house in Titchfield Common contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover Titchfield Common and the area around Swanwick station?
Yes, we cover Titchfield Common and the area towards Swanwick station, about 1.5 miles north.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Do I need to move out?
That depends: outdoor work rarely means leaving. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. To do that, use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
Where does the asbestos go?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
Typical removal jobs in Titchfield Common
Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and insulating board release fibres much more easily than asbestos cement, which is why that work is licensed.
These are some of the things we deal with in Titchfield Common:
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos

For rentals close to Swanwick station, removal fits neatly between tenancies.
