For businesses and landlords in Weston

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

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

Asbestos removal for Weston properties

If your builder has found suspect material in Weston, work should stop there and people kept out. We can test it and, if needed, plan its removal. Typical materials include cement roof sheets, flue pipes and cement soffits, and typical jobs are garage roof sheets and old floor tiles and black adhesive.

In towns and villages like Weston, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

More about this service

Why people call us in Weston

Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so buildings across Hampshire built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.

These are the materials and situations that most often lead to removal jobs:

  • Cement water tanks in lofts
  • Old floor tiles and black adhesive
  • Artex ceilings before renovation
  • Asbestos found during building work

If you let property near Petersfield station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What isn’t included
  • If the price includes VAT
  • What you’ll receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
  • What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples

Read the checklist

Materials, one by one

Textured coatings

Textured coatings are removed with wet or gel methods, never dry-scraped or sanded. Larger-scale steam or gel removal is notifiable non-licensed work.

Insulating board and lagging

Insulating board, lagging and sprayed coatings are licensed work in most cases.

DIY and asbestos

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

How it works

On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, then keep the material damp throughout. We go over the plan with you first, so you know what’s happening. Late-December sunset in Weston is about 4:00pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

  1. Tell us what needs removing and send photos
  2. We identify it if needed and plan the method
  3. We send a quote covering the work and the waste
  4. We remove it with controls to keep fibres down
  5. The area is cleaned and you get the consignment note

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Tell us about anything that is already damaged
  • Let neighbours know if the work is near them

Our quotes take into account:

  • The category of work

  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • Where we could park
  • Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely

Common questions in Weston

Do you come out to small villages like Weston?

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

Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the South Downs National Park?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

Could my home contain asbestos?

Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

Should all asbestos be removed?

No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.

Is asbestos removal licensed?

It depends on the material and the job. Cement and textured coatings are normally non-licensed; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it.

Do I need a test or a survey?

Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.

Your options compared

Very cheap quotes can be a warning sign: controls, equipment and legal disposal all cost money. Ask to see the waste paperwork. A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
