Asbestos removal in Whitchurch
Removal isn’t always the answer. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we will tell you honestly when that’s the case. Whether it’s finds during refurbishment and old flues, we cover water tanks, gutters and downpipes and cement roof sheets.
Rural removal near Whitchurch can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

Your options compared
DIY removal might look cheaper, but HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and disposal still has to be done properly. A price that looks too good to be true often is: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
How we work in Whitchurch
- We identify first and remove only what needs removing

Looking after things afterwards
If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, because the plan may need to change.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Let us know where we can park
Don’ts
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of.

Doing it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
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.
Responsibilities for owners
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
If your business premises in Whitchurch were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
What we do and do not cover
It’s worth knowing what asbestos removal does and does not cover:
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is usually separate
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
- Some jobs must be notified first, so the timing needs planning
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
Can asbestos be left in place?
Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
How dangerous is asbestos?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
