Asbestos removal for East Marden

Asbestos removal in East Marden

Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, since the right method depends on what it is. From outbuildings with cement roofs and old floor tiles and black adhesive, we deal with cement roof sheets, water tanks and cement soffits.

Rural removal near East Marden can mean longer distances to carry waste, so the route is planned in advance. We identify materials before planning removal, as the right approach depends on the material.

Why people call us in East Marden

Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so buildings across West Sussex built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.

If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:

  • Textured coatings
  • Broken sheets in gardens
  • Garage roofs and whole garages
  • Cement water tanks in lofts

Older buildings in East Marden, near Church of St Peter or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we test before we plan.

Materials we deal with

Floor tiles

Black bitumen adhesive may need treating separately.

Bitumen and felt

Bitumen felts can contain asbestos, which is generally well bound.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

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.

How we price asbestos removal

The price of asbestos removal depends mainly on:

  • Licensed or non-licensed
  • Disposal costs
  • Material and condition
  • How many samples are needed

A price that looks too good to be true often is: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

What to photograph

A few photos can save a site visit:

  • Labels, if any
  • An idea of size
  • How we’d reach it
  • The parking area

To get a quote, use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

Which option is right?

Be wary of a price that seems too low: proper controls, protective equipment, a registered waste carrier and disposal cost money. Always ask for the consignment note. There’s no one-size price, as every job differs. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

Why people choose us

  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
  • Homes, rented property and workplaces
  • Clear written quotes
  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing

Doing it yourself?

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

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

East Marden: your questions answered

Do you come out to small villages like East Marden?

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.

How far is East Marden from London?

East Marden is about 51 miles from central London, well within our area.

Do you cover East Marden?

Yes, we do: our area includes East Marden and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.

Is asbestos dangerous?

Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.

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.

Can I stay at home during removal?

For outdoor jobs, you can normally stay put. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.

Could my home contain asbestos?

You can’t tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
