Asbestos removal near Viables
Before removal, the material has to be identified. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. From garage roof sheets and Artex ceilings before renovation, we cover cement soffits, gutters and downpipes and cement roof sheets.
In towns and villages like Viables, we often remove garage roofs and old sheds, with access through the garden or drive. If you’re unsure what you need, ask: we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

DIY and asbestos
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Common reasons for removal jobs in Viables
Old materials break down over time: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is when removal comes up.
People typically contact us about one of these:
- Artex before plastering
- Cement water tanks in lofts
- Debris left from a previous job
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
At a school such as St John's Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.
What your quote should include
- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you will get a consignment note
- How fibres will be kept down
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence

Viables: your questions answered
How far is Viables from London?
Viables is about 46 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you work near Basingstoke station?
Yes, we cover Viables and the area towards Basingstoke station, about 1.3 miles north.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Is asbestos dangerous?
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, which is why it’s identified before work.
Do you work in Viables?
Yes, Viables is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
How much does asbestos removal cost in Viables?
It depends on the material, how much there is, its condition, access and disposal. Every job gets a written quote.
A closer look at the materials
Insulating board and lagging
Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.
Floor tiles
Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with power tools.
Responsibilities for owners
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Viables must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
What it costs
What drives the price:
- What the material is and its state
- Location, parking and any London charges
- How much there is
- How easy it is to reach
The cost of asbestos removal depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.
