For businesses and landlords in Kingston near Lewes
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
For managing agents and freeholders in Kingston near Lewes, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.
Doing it yourself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
What it costs
What changes the cost:
- The type of material and its condition
- Location, parking and any London charges
- Licensed or non-licensed
- The quantity or area
Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
What to photograph
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them without disturbing anything:
- A rough size or measurement
- Cracks or breaks
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- Street parking nearby
Unsure whether you need a test, a survey or removal? Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749, and we’ll advise.
What happens next
Keep the consignment note with your property records: it’s useful when you sell.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- File the waste paperwork
- Send photos of the whole garage and the access
- Book your roofer in advance
- Let us know where we can park
Things not to do
Keep weight off the roof.
Don’t jet-wash, scrub or wire-brush the sheets.
