Asbestos removal for High Salvington
Asbestos removal near High Salvington
Asbestos materials are kept wet, taken out whole where we can, and never cut with power tools, to keep fibre release as low as possible. Whether it’s cement water tanks in lofts and asbestos found during building work, we deal with flue pipes, textured coatings and floor tiles.
Properties in places like High Salvington with larger plots can have more than one cement-roofed building. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

DIY and asbestos
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Materials we deal with
Floor tiles
Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with sanders or grinders.
Water tanks and flues
Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

FAQs for High Salvington
Do you cover High Salvington and the area around Durrington-On-Sea station?
Yes. Durrington-On-Sea station is about 2.2 miles south of High Salvington, and we cover both.
Do you work on properties in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
What does removal cost?
There’s no fixed price: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.
What happens to the waste?
It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site, with a consignment note as your record.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You cannot tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.

Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:
- Asbestos found during building work
