Bognor Regis questions

Could my house in Bognor Regis contain asbestos?

That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Bognor Regis can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

How far is Bognor Regis from London?

We cover Bognor Regis, about 55 miles from central London.

What does licensed work mean?

Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings typically are not licensed.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.

Do you test before removing asbestos in Bognor Regis?

Yes, if it hasn’t been tested: the way it’s removed depends on the material.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.

What if the weather’s bad?

Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.

What’s the difference between a test and a survey?

Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

Materials we deal with

Water tanks and flues

Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.

Bitumen and felt

Bitumen felts can contain asbestos, normally tightly bound.

What affects the price in Bognor Regis

When we quote, we look at:

  • The type of material and its condition
  • Disposal costs
  • How much there is
  • Access to the area

Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.

What to photograph

Before you send photos, a few tips:

  • Approximate dimensions
  • Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
  • Where we could park
  • The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch

Each job is priced individually. Call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form to get started.

Step by step

We wear disposable coveralls and suitable respirators, and nobody else enters the work area. At the end, we tell you what was done and what happens next. In winter, the light goes in Bognor Regis by about 4:00pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

  1. Send us the postcode and photos
  2. We check whether it’s licensed, notifiable or non-licensed work
  3. We agree a date and any notification needed
  4. We set up the work area and remove the material
  5. We dispose of the waste legally and send the paperwork

Getting ready

  • Let us know where we can park
  • Ensure we can get to the area
  • Dig out previous surveys

Your options compared

Covering or sealing asbestos is sometimes an alternative to removal, but the asbestos is still there and needs recording for future work. We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.

What you get

  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing
  • Work done to the regulations
  • Covering London and the South East
  • Legal disposal, with paperwork

Take a look at how we price jobs and published price ranges.

Afterwards

If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.

After the job, keep these in mind:

  • Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Share any survey or test results
  • File the consignment note

What to avoid

Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris.

Doing it yourself?

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
