When asbestos is involved, you need a company you can truly trust. At Southern Asbestos, we're dedicated to providing a clear, safe, and dependable service from the moment you get in touch. Our fully trained team brings years of hands-on expertise to every job in Wokingham. We carry full Public Liability Insurance and always stick to the letter of HSE guidelines and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012). Plus, we hold a valid Waste Carriers Licence, so you know all asbestos waste is handled and disposed of legally and responsibly. We give you a transparent, detailed quote upfront, with no hidden fees, so you always know what to expect.

Understanding where asbestos might be hiding and what condition it's in is always the first, crucial step. Our experienced surveyors provide thorough asbestos surveys that give you all the information you need to manage risk and follow the law.

• Home Buyer Asbestos Surveys: Buying a property in Wokingham? This survey is a must. It helps identify potential hidden asbestos costs and safety risks before you commit.
• Asbestos Management Surveys: If you own or manage a non-domestic property, this is a legal requirement. We find any asbestos-containing materials (ACMs), check their condition, and put together a report and register to help you manage them safely.
• Refurbishment & Demolition Surveys: Planning any construction, refurbishment, or demolition work? An intrusive survey is legally required before you start. We find everything that needs attention.
• Regular Re-inspections: We can carry out scheduled re-checks to monitor the condition of any asbestos we've found, keeping your management plan up to date and your property safe.
  If your property was built or refurbished before the year 2000, there’s a good chance it could contain asbestos, as it was a very common building material then.

Our main service involves the careful and safe removal of non-licensed asbestos from all sorts of properties across Wokingham. Our trained team follows strict procedures to seal off the work area, remove the materials without fuss, and leave your property clean and completely safe.

• Domestic Asbestos Removal: We're experts at removing asbestos from Wokingham garages, sheds, outbuildings, soffits and fascias, old floor tiles, and cement water tanks. We even handle textured coatings like Artex.
• Commercial Asbestos Removal: From office refurbishments to retail fit-outs, we remove asbestos cement panels, ceiling tiles, and other ACMs, working to minimise disruption to your daily operations.
• Industrial Asbestos Removal: We take on larger projects too, like removing asbestos cement roofing and cladding from warehouses, factories, and agricultural buildings.
  While it's not strictly illegal for homeowners to remove small, non-licensed asbestos cement items themselves, it's incredibly risky if not done correctly. Without proper training, safety gear (like PPE and RPE), and the right disposal methods, you risk exposing yourself and others to dangerous fibres. We always recommend getting a professional asbestos removal service involved.
