Asbestos removal in Water End
Removal is not always the answer. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we’ll tell you honestly when that’s the case. Typical jobs include cement water tanks in lofts and broken sheets in gardens, involving textured coatings, water tanks and gutters and downpipes.
In areas like Water End, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, where access across fields or yards needs planning. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

Questions from Water End
Do you cover small places like Water End?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Could my house in Water End contain asbestos?
Any home in Water End built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
You cannot tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Do you cover Water End?
Yes. We cover Water End and the surrounding area as part of Hampshire. Send us the postcode for a quote.
How quickly can you come out?
That depends on the work and current bookings. We’ll give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.

Should you do it yourself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

For businesses and landlords in Water End
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
What it might be made of
Water tanks and flues
Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.
Bitumen and felt
Some old roof felts and bitumen products contain asbestos, which is generally well bound.
What we do and do not cover
Worth knowing before you book:
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
- Making good is normally a separate job
- We do not remove anything until it’s been identified
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before booking.
Common materials
- Panels and boards
- Garage and shed roofs
- Bitumen roof felt
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Artex and textured coatings
- Gutters and downpipes

Where asbestos turns up
Sometimes damage forces the issue, especially if broken material is lying around.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Old flues
- Asbestos found during building work
- Old cold water tanks
- Garage roofs and whole garages
Older buildings in Water End, near St Swithun's church or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so materials are identified first.
