About our asbestos removal in Worting
Asbestos materials are kept wet, taken out whole where we can, and never cut with power tools, to keep fibre release as low as possible. From finds during refurbishment and loft water tanks, we cover cement soffits, floor tiles and flue pipes and more.
In areas like Worting, we often remove garage roofs and old sheds, with access through the garden or drive. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Looking after things afterwards
If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.
Once we are done:
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Let us know where we can park
What to avoid
Don’t jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.
Where asbestos turns up
Old materials break down over time: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is when removal comes up.
People generally contact us about one of these:
- Old flues
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Old waste on site
In older properties in Worting, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so materials are identified first.
Before booking anyone
- Suitable insurance for the work
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
- If the price includes VAT
- Which laboratory analyses samples
Good to know
It’s worth knowing what asbestos removal does and doesn’t cover:
- Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

- Bitumen roof felt
- Panels and boards
- Flue pipes
- Water tanks

Other services in Worting

Questions from Worting
Do you work near Basingstoke station?
Yes, we cover Worting and the area towards Basingstoke station, about 2.1 miles east.
Could my house in Worting contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Worting may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
Sometimes: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings generally are not licensed.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.
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.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
What it might be made of
Floor tiles
Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with sanders or grinders.
Textured coatings
Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.
Choosing the right option
Remove, or leave and manage? Sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is generally right. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
