Winklebury questions
Do you cover Winklebury and the area around Basingstoke station?
Yes, we cover Winklebury and the area towards Basingstoke station, about 1.5 miles east.
Do you cover Winklebury from London?
We cover Winklebury, about 47 miles from central London.
What does licensed work mean?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials need a licensed contractor.
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 happens to the waste?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises.

Helpful guides
Should you do it yourself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Materials we deal with
Floor tiles
Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with sanders or grinders.
Insulating board and lagging
That work must be done by a contractor holding an HSE licence, with notification 14 days ahead.
Options to consider in Winklebury
Licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed? The material and the job decide. See our guide to the three categories. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
Why us?
- Records for your files

Duty holders and landlords in Winklebury
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Winklebury, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Looking after things afterwards
If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, so future trades know about it.
A few practical points:
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Book the replacement before removal
- File the consignment note
What to avoid
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
