Asbestos removal near Goring-by-Sea
We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, so fibre release stays as low as possible. Common materials are flue pipes, cement roof sheets and textured coatings, and people generally contact us about broken sheets in gardens and old floor tiles and black adhesive.
Properties in areas like Goring-by-Sea with larger plots can have more than one cement-roofed building, which can often be dealt with together. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Goring-by-Sea
Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: whatever the work will touch should come out first.
In older properties, we often see:
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Old flues
- Old sheds and coal bunkers
- Finds during refurbishment
In a school like Goring-By-Sea CofE (Aided) Primary School, any removal is agreed with the duty holder and done while the area is out of use.

Materials, one by one
Insulating board and lagging
Insulating board, lagging and sprayed coatings are licensed work in most cases.
Water tanks and flues
Tanks and flues are disconnected first, then removed with minimal breakage.
Prices and what affects them
These are the main things that affect the price of asbestos removal:
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- The quantity or area
- How much waste there is
- The number of samples or the size of the building
Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
Photos that help
Helpful photos:
- An idea of size
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- The parking area
- A clear close-up
Photos from a safe distance help: do not touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
Can I do it myself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Looking after things afterwards
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you get the consignment note showing where the waste went.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Share any survey or test results
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
Don’ts
Don’t jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Does someone need to be there?

In many cases it can stay: sound material that will not be disturbed can be left and managed. Record it and keep an eye on it.

Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
