Can I do it myself?
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.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
What affects the price in Itchingfield
We base our quote on:
- How easy it is to reach
- Licensed or non-licensed
- What the material is and its state
- The quantity or area
Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
Photos that help
Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them without disturbing anything:
- How we’d reach it
- A rough size or measurement
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- Where we could park
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos and the postcode: just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
For businesses and landlords in Itchingfield
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
For managing agents and freeholders in Itchingfield, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.
What we do and don’t cover
Some limits to bear in mind:
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
- We do not remove anything until it’s been identified
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before you book.

Bitumen and felt
Some old roof felts and bitumen products contain asbestos, usually tightly bound.
Weighing up your options
Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and will not be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.

- Reports and results you can share
- Work done to the regulations
- Domestic and commercial work
Read our prices page or published price ranges.
Looking after things afterwards
Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Share any survey or test results
- Photos of the material and the route in help
Don’ts
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
