Asbestos removal for Funtington
About our asbestos removal in Funtington
Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. People often contact us about garage roof sheets and broken sheets in gardens, including gutters and downpipes, water tanks and flue pipes.
In areas like Funtington, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, where access across fields or yards needs planning. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, for your records.

Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors in the price are:
- The type of material and its condition
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- Travel and parking
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
There’s no one-size price, as every job differs. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.
Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, send:
- An idea of size
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
Not sure what you need? Call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form and describe the problem, and we will recommend the right option.
Options to consider in Funtington

DIY and asbestos
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999.
