Should you do it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
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.
Common questions in Wrecclesham
Do older homes in Wrecclesham have asbestos?
Any home in Wrecclesham built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
How far is Wrecclesham from London?
We cover Wrecclesham, about 38 miles from central London.
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.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.
Can I stay at home during removal?
Outdoor work rarely affects you indoors. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings usually aren’t licensed.
Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?
HSE advises against removing asbestos yourself. Licensed materials must only be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor.

These are some of the things we deal with in Wrecclesham:
- Cement flues and gutters
- Cement water tanks in lofts
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
- Floor tiles before a new floor
In a school like St Peter's CofE Primary School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use.
Questions to ask before booking

- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work

Once we are done:
- Tell us about any previous survey

- Let neighbours know if work is near them

Avoid these

Materials we deal with
Textured coatings
Textured coatings are removed with wet or gel methods, never dry-scraped or sanded. Large-scale steam or gel removal must be notified.
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.
