For businesses and landlords in Ewhurst Green
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.
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Ewhurst Green, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Asbestos removal in Ewhurst Green
In homes, in Ewhurst Green as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. HSE treats work on these as non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed in most cases, which still means proper controls. Whether it’s old sheds and coal bunkers and garage roofs and whole garages, we deal with textured coatings, cement roof sheets and floor tiles and more.
In areas like Ewhurst Green, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. Every job comes with paperwork, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Common questions in Ewhurst Green
Do you work on properties in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Is asbestos common in Ewhurst Green homes?
Any home in Ewhurst Green built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
What does licensed work mean?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.
How dangerous is asbestos?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
After we’ve finished in Ewhurst Green
If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, because the plan may need to change.
Once we’re done:
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Keep children and pets away on the day

Don’ts
Do not let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.
Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
