If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Removal jobs in Dukes Green
Dukes Green is about 3 miles north-east of Seaford, in East Sussex. We work across Dukes Green and the surrounding area, from older terraces and semis to flats, workplaces and outbuildings. We work in 289 places in East Sussex. We work right across the region, from Dukes Green to Brighton (about 13 miles away).
In older properties in Dukes Green, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we identify materials before planning removal. For non-domestic buildings like Alfriston School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty. Dukes Green is within about a mile of the South Downs National Park; removing asbestos from rural buildings there follows the same rules, with access across yards and fields to plan. Dukes Green is within about 3 miles of the coast, where exposed sites can be windy, so outdoor removal is planned around the forecast.

Good to know
A few things to be aware of:
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is normally separate
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before you book.
What we deal with
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Bitumen roof felt
- Garage and shed roofs
- Flue pipes
- Water tanks
- Artex and textured coatings
- Gutters and downpipes
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Panels and boards
- Soffits (cement)
Looking after things afterwards
If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Tell us about parking and access
What to avoid
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris.
Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
Choosing the right option
Removing asbestos before building work avoids stopping the job halfway, rather than halting work when it’s found. Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
What you get
- Houses, flats and business premises
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
- Identify first, remove only when needed
- Clear advice on your options

Dukes Green: your questions answered
Do you work on properties in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
How far is Dukes Green from London?
We cover Dukes Green, about 50 miles from central London.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
How quickly can you come out?
That depends on the work and current bookings. We’ll give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
Can I stay at home during removal?
For outdoor jobs, you can generally stay put. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.
Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials need a licensed contractor.
