DIY and asbestos
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
About our asbestos removal in Aldingbourne
Licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, and has to be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. We’ll explain what applies to your job in Aldingbourne. Common materials are cement roof sheets, cement soffits and water tanks, and typical jobs are outbuildings with cement roofs and Artex before plastering.
In areas like Aldingbourne, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Common questions in Aldingbourne
Do you come out to small villages like Aldingbourne?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Is asbestos common in Aldingbourne homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
Where does the asbestos go?
We bag or wrap it, label it and take it to a permitted site, with a consignment note as your record.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
If it hasn’t been identified, yes. The removal method depends on the material.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
Sometimes: lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, while most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
How it works
We start by setting up and segregating the work area, and keep the material wet as we work. While we work, the area stays out of bounds, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. Late-December sunset in Aldingbourne is about 4:00pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.

For businesses and landlords in Aldingbourne
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Why people call us in Aldingbourne
Old materials break down over time: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is often when people decide to remove them.
In older properties, we often see:
- Textured coatings
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Old cold water tanks
- Asbestos garages
For rentals close to Barnham station, removal fits neatly between tenancies.
