Materials, one by one
Asbestos cement
Cement products make up most removal jobs: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. It’s kept damp and removed whole where possible.
Floor tiles
Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with power tools.

What else we do in Ellen's Green
Duty holders and landlords in Ellen's Green
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Should you do it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
Where asbestos turns up
Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so pre-2000 buildings across West Sussex may contain it.
These are some of the things we deal with in Ellen's Green:
- Garage roof sheets

Questions from Ellen's Green
Do you work near Warnham station?
Yes. Warnham station is about 4 miles east of Ellen's Green, and we cover both.
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
It does not always have to come out: material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
