Asbestos removal for West Green
How asbestos removal works in West Green
Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. From flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and materials found mid-project, we deal with gutters and downpipes, cement soffits and cement roof sheets and more.
In places like West Green, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, where access across fields or yards needs planning. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

Should you do 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.
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Where asbestos turns up
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so buildings across Hampshire built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
People normally contact us about one of these:
- Loft water tanks
- Materials found mid-project
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Old flues
In older properties in West Green, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we test before we plan.

A closer look at the materials
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.
Insulating board and lagging
Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.
West Green questions
Do you come out to small villages like West Green?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you work near Winchfield station?
Yes, we cover West Green and the area towards Winchfield station, about 1.3 miles south-east.
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.
Do I need to move out?
It depends on the job: outdoor jobs do not typically affect you. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we have finished.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice.
