About our asbestos removal in Gossops Green

Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If it hasn’t been tested, we sample it first, since the right method depends on what it is. Typical jobs include asbestos found during building work and old cold water tanks, involving gutters and downpipes, textured coatings and flue pipes.

In a smaller place like Gossops Green, removal is often a garage roof, a shed or an outbuilding, with access through the garden or drive. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Prices and what affects them

We base our quote on:

  • How much waste there is
  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space
  • The type of material and its condition
  • The quantity or area

Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

Sending photos

Photos often save us a visit:

  • Where we could park
  • An idea of size
  • Damaged areas
  • The access route

Every job is quoted in writing. Just use our quote form or call 07833 053 749 with the details.

Questions from Gossops Green

Could my house in Gossops Green contain asbestos?

That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Gossops Green can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Do you work near Ifield station?

Yes. Ifield station is close to the centre of Gossops Green, and we cover the whole area.

How can I get a price?

Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. Then use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.

Do you work in flats?

We do. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.

Should all asbestos be removed?

Not always: sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.

When can you start?

That depends on the work and current bookings. You’ll get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.

For businesses and landlords in Gossops Green

If your business premises in Gossops Green were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.

Why people call us in Gossops Green

Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so buildings across West Sussex built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.

  • Garage roof sheets
  • Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
  • Old flues
  • Textured coatings

If you are on or near the A23, tell us about parking and loading.

Can I do it myself?

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

Looking after things afterwards

Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.

Some practical advice:

  • Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Let neighbours know if work is near them
  • Photos of the material and the route in help
  • File the consignment note

Things not to do

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.

Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Good to know

We’re upfront about what’s included:

  • Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
  • Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
  • Making good is normally a separate job

If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.

What we deal with

  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Bitumen roof felt
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Artex and textured coatings
  • Soffits (cement)
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Water tanks
  • Flue pipes
  • Asbestos cement sheets
  • Panels and boards

What it might be made of

Insulating board and lagging

Insulating board, lagging and sprayed coatings are licensed work in most cases.

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
