Asbestos help in Isfield

Asbestos removal in Isfield

Removal is planned, not improvised: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified. Whether it’s old sheds and coal bunkers and old floor tiles and black adhesive, we cover cement soffits, gutters and downpipes and water tanks.

In Isfield, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so the route is planned in advance. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

How we price asbestos removal

Quotes vary because of:

  • The quantity or area
  • Parking and access charges
  • What the material is and its state
  • Waste quantity and disposal

How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.

Photos that help

Before you send photos, a few tips:

  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • Labels, if any
  • Cracks or breaks
  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it

Unsure whether you need a test, a survey or removal? Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749, and we will advise.

Should you do it yourself?

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

How it works

Materials are released carefully and removed whole where possible, never broken up, dropped or cut with power tools. We wear suitable protective equipment for the job, and keeps dust to a minimum. Late-December sunset in Isfield is about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.

  1. Tell us what needs removing and send photos

  • Let neighbours know if the work is near them
  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Clear belongings, but leave the material alone

Isfield questions

Do you come out to small villages like Isfield?

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.

Do you work on properties in the South Downs National Park?

Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

Where does the asbestos go?

We bag or wrap it, label it and take it to a permitted site, with a consignment note as your record.

What does removal cost?

Every job is priced individually: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.

Is asbestos removal licensed?

Sometimes: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings generally aren’t licensed.

Do you work in flats?

Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.

Do you work on commercial premises?

We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

What we deal with in Isfield

Materials deteriorate with age: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is when removal comes up.

Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:

  • Old flues
  • Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
  • Old cold water tanks
  • Asbestos garages

If you let property near Uckfield station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.

Questions to ask before booking

  • What category of work it is
  • That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
  • Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed
  • What is not included

More about this service

For businesses and landlords in Isfield

Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
