About our asbestos removal in Well

In homes, in Well as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. Work on these is typically non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls. Typical jobs include old sheds and coal bunkers and garage roofs and whole garages, including water tanks, cement roof sheets and flue pipes.

In towns and villages like Well, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Typical removal jobs in Well

Some owners remove visible asbestos before a sale or letting, although sound material can often stay.

In older properties, we often see:

  • Artex ceilings before renovation
  • Floor tiles before a new floor
  • Cement flues and gutters
  • Old cold water tanks

For rentals close to Bentley (Hampshire) station, removal fits neatly between tenancies.

Choosing an asbestos contractor

DIY and asbestos

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.

FAQs for Well

Do you come out to small villages like Well?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.

Could my house in Well contain asbestos?

That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Well can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

What happens to the waste?

It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.

What does licensed work mean?

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

How quickly can you come out?

That depends on the work and current bookings. We will give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.

Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?

Not always. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed work; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.

Do I need to move out?

Outdoor work rarely affects you indoors. Indoor work areas are sealed off and kept clear while the work is done.

After the job

If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, as the method may need to change.

Going forward:

  • Share any survey or test results
  • Let neighbours know if work is near them
  • Tell us about parking and access
  • Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos

Things not to do

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste.

Don’t put asbestos in household bins or skips.

What it might be made of

Floor tiles

Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with power tools.

Insulating board and lagging

It needs an HSE-licensed contractor and 14 days’ notice.

How we price asbestos removal

What changes the cost:

  • Parking and access charges
  • How easy it is to reach
  • Waste quantity and disposal
  • The size of the job

A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

Sending photos

The most useful photos are:

  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it
  • A photo of the whole area
  • Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
  • Street parking nearby

Not sure what you need? Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page and describe the problem, and we will recommend the right option.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.

Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
