Before anything starts, we confirm the areas and materials with you, so there is no confusion. Outdoor removal in Wyck is planned to finish in daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:20pm.

Asbestos removal for Wyck properties
We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, so fibre release stays as low as possible. Typical materials include cement roof sheets, floor tiles and cement soffits, and people normally contact us about finds during refurbishment and floor tiles before a new floor.
In Wyck, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so the route is planned in advance. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

Where asbestos turns up
Materials deteriorate with age: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is often when people decide to remove them.
People generally contact us about one of these:
- Garage roof sheets
- Materials found mid-project
- Loft water tanks
- Textured coatings
For rentals close to Alton station, removal fits neatly between tenancies.
What to look for in a quote
- Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed
- If the price includes VAT
- The method and controls
- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you will get a consignment note
What happens next
If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, so future trades know about it.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Let us know where we can park
- File the consignment note
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
- Share any survey or test results
Don’ts
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Do not let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.
Can I do it myself?
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
FAQs for Wyck
Do you cover small places like Wyck?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you cover Wyck and the area around Alton station?
Yes. Alton station is about 2.2 miles west of Wyck, and we cover both.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
What does licensed work mean?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
When can you start?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.
What happens to the waste?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.
What does removal cost?
There’s no fixed price: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.
Options to consider in Wyck
What kind of work is it? The material and the job decide. Our guide explains the difference, with links to HSE’s pages. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
