  • Asbestos found during building work
  • Floor tiles before a new floor
  • Debris left from a previous job
  • Artex ceilings before renovation

Questions from Upper Froyle

Could my house in Upper Froyle contain asbestos?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you cover Upper Froyle from London?

We cover Upper Froyle, about 42 miles from central London.

Which asbestos work needs a licence?

It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.

Do you cover Upper Froyle?

Yes. We cover Upper Froyle and the surrounding area as part of Hampshire. Tell us the postcode and what you need.

Should all asbestos be removed?

Not always. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.

Will I get the price in writing?

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

Do you test before removing asbestos in Upper Froyle?

Unless it’s already been identified, yes: the way it’s removed depends on the material.

Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?

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

DIY and asbestos

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
