How asbestos removal works in West Wellow
Every removal job in West Wellow is planned first: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified. From garage roofs and whole garages and old waste on site, we deal with floor tiles, textured coatings and gutters and downpipes and more.
Rural removal near West Wellow can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so there are no surprises.

Your questions about asbestos removal in West Wellow
Could my house in West Wellow contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in West Wellow may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover West Wellow and the area around Romsey station?
Yes, we cover West Wellow and the area towards Romsey station, about 4.2 miles east.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Can asbestos be left in place?
In many cases it can stay: sound material that won’t be disturbed can be left and managed. Record it and keep an eye on it.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Can I stay at home during removal?
It depends on the job: outdoor work rarely means leaving. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we’ve finished.

Good to know
It’s worth knowing what asbestos removal does and doesn’t cover:
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is generally separate
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
What we deal with
- Bitumen roof felt
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Flue pipes

Why choose us
- Homes, rented property and workplaces
- Jobs planned to HSE guidance
- Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
- Covering London and the South East

What we deal with in West Wellow
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so pre-2000 buildings across Hampshire may contain it.
In older properties, we often see:
- Debris left from a previous job
- Asbestos garages
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Cement flues and gutters
For non-domestic buildings like Wellow School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.
What your quote should include
- Where the waste goes, with paperwork
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
- How the work will be done, and the controls used
- What is not included
Should you do it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Prices and what affects them
When we quote, we look at:
- The size of the job
- How much waste there is
- The type of material and its condition
- Access to the area
Doing several things in one visit can help, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
Photos that help
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:
- An idea of size
- Labels, if any
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
Photos and a postcode help us quote quickly: just call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
