About our asbestos removal in America Ground
Removal isn’t always the answer. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we’ll say so. Typical jobs include asbestos found during building work and Artex before plastering, involving cement roof sheets, gutters and downpipes and cement soffits.
In a smaller place like America Ground, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, with access through the garden or drive. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

Questions from America Ground
Do you cover America Ground from London?
America Ground is about 53 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you work near Hastings station?
Yes, we cover America Ground, including the streets around Hastings station.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is generally needed.
When can you start?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, which is why identifying it first matters.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
DIY and asbestos
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
What to avoid
Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

Choosing the right option
Remove, or leave and manage? Sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
Why choose us
- Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations
- Domestic and commercial work
- No removal until we know what it is
- Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
