How asbestos removal works in Ashburnham
Before removal, the material has to be identified. If it hasn’t been tested, we sample it first, since the right method depends on what it is. Whether it’s finds during refurbishment and asbestos garages, we deal with gutters and downpipes, cement roof sheets and flue pipes and more.
In towns and villages like Ashburnham, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, where access across fields or yards needs planning. Every job comes with paperwork, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Questions from Ashburnham
Do you cover small places like Ashburnham?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you work near Battle station?
Yes. Battle station is about 4.4 miles east of Ashburnham, and we cover both.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
How do I get a quote?
Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
How quickly can you come out?
That depends on the work and current bookings. We’ll give you dates when we quote.
Do you cover Ashburnham?
Yes, we do: Ashburnham is within the area we cover in East Sussex. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.
Doing it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
What it costs
Quotes vary because of:
- Travel and parking
- The type of material and its condition
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- How many samples are needed
A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
Helping us quote
The most useful photos are:
- How we’d reach it
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- A close-up from a safe distance
- Where we could park
Unsure whether you need a test, a survey or removal? Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749, and we will advise.
For businesses and landlords in Ashburnham
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

Weighing up your options
Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and won’t be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. Dealing with asbestos before building work is usually cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
What you get
- Houses, flats and business premises
- Legal disposal, with paperwork
- Reports and results you can share
- We identify first and remove only what needs removing

A closer look at the materials
Insulating board and lagging
That work must be done by a contractor holding an HSE licence, with notification 14 days ahead.
Bitumen and felt
Some old roof felts and bitumen products contain asbestos, which is normally well bound.
After we’ve finished in Ashburnham
Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
Some practical advice:
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- File the consignment note
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
Don’ts
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
