Compliance & Licensing
Transparency and regulatory compliance are at the core of everything we do. Here are the standards, licences, and qualifications that underpin our services.
Our Licences & Registrations
HSE Asbestos Removal Licence
We hold a full licence issued by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) for the removal of all types of asbestos-containing materials, including licensable (high-risk) materials such as sprayed coatings, asbestos insulation board (AIB), and loose-fill insulation. This licence is subject to regular HSE inspection and renewal.

We are registered as an upper-tier waste carrier with the Environment Agency, authorising us to collect and transport controlled waste, including hazardous asbestos waste. Our registration covers the entire Hampshire service area and is maintained in full compliance with waste duty of care requirements.
