Chiddingstone Causeway: your questions answered
Do you cover Chiddingstone Causeway from London?
Chiddingstone Causeway is about 24 miles from central London, well within our area.
Could my house in Chiddingstone Causeway contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not necessarily. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
In many cases it can stay: sound material that won’t be disturbed can be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Yes, if it hasn’t been tested: the method depends on what the material is.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it.

Helpful guides
Duty holders and landlords in Chiddingstone Causeway
For managing agents and freeholders in Chiddingstone Causeway, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
What we deal with in Chiddingstone Causeway
Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so buildings across Kent built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Common situations include:
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Old flues
- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
- Artex before plastering
Older buildings in Chiddingstone Causeway, near Church of St Luke or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so materials are identified first.
Questions to ask before booking

Should you do it yourself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
