Asbestos removal for Climping

Asbestos removal for Climping properties

Removal is planned, not improvised: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified, before anyone starts. Whether it’s floor tiles before a new floor and sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos, we deal with water tanks, flue pipes and floor tiles and more.

Rural removal near Climping can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Doing it yourself?

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

Climping properties and asbestos removal

Climping is about 2 miles west of Littlehampton, in West Sussex. We cover Climping as part of West Sussex, whatever the size of the job. Climping is one of 371 places in West Sussex where we work. You can also see our page for Brighton, about 19 miles away.

In a school like St Mary's CofE Primary School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use. For rentals close to Littlehampton station, removal fits neatly between tenancies. Climping is within about 7 miles of the South Downs National Park; removing asbestos from rural buildings there follows the same rules, with access across yards and fields to plan. Climping is within about 2 miles of the coast, where exposed sites can be windy, so outdoor removal is planned around the forecast.

We cover removal jobs across the BN17 postcode area and the streets around it. From Church Lane, Horsemere Green Lane and Crookthorn Lane or anywhere nearby, the process is the same. For properties just outside Climping, we cover Horsemere Green (1 mile west), Atherington (1 mile south), Ford (1 mile north), Wick (1 mile north-east) and Tortington (2 miles north).

Questions from Climping

Do older homes in Climping have asbestos?

If your home in Climping was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you can’t tell by looking. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you work near Littlehampton station?

Yes, we cover Climping and the area towards Littlehampton station, about 1.2 miles east.

Does someone need to be there?

Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.

Do you cover Climping?

We do: our area includes Climping and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description and we will quote.

Does all asbestos have to be removed?

In many cases it can stay: if it’s in good condition and out of the way, it can stay. Record it and keep an eye on it.

What does removal cost?

Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. We quote each job individually.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.

Options to consider in Climping

DIY removal might look cheaper, but HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and the waste still has to go to a permitted site with the right paperwork. Doing several things in one visit can help, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.

  • Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations

After we have finished in Climping

After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you get the consignment note showing where the waste went.

Some practical advice:

  • Send photos of the material and the access
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards

Avoid these

Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.

Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

For landlords, agents and businesses

If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Climping, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Step by step

Our team uses disposable coveralls and respiratory protection, and keep everyone else out of the work area. Unexpected finds are discussed with you first. Late-December sunset in Climping is about 4:00pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

  1. Send us the postcode and photos

Typical removal jobs in Climping

Not all asbestos materials are equal: lagging and insulating board release fibres much more easily than asbestos cement, which is why that work is licensed.

Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:

  • Old flues
  • Garage roofs and whole garages
  • Floor tiles before a new floor
  • Loft water tanks

Older buildings in Climping, near The Parish Church of St Mary or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so materials are identified first.

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you will get a consignment note
  • The scope of the job, in writing
  • What is not included
  • For licensed work, a valid HSE licence

Materials we deal with

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement is the most common material we remove: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.

Water tanks and flues

Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
