Questions from Kilnwood Vale
Do older homes in Kilnwood Vale have asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Kilnwood Vale may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Kilnwood Vale and the area around Faygate station?
Yes, we cover Kilnwood Vale and the area towards Faygate station, about 0.9 miles west.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
When can you start?
That depends on the work and current bookings. You will get available dates with the quote.
Do you test before removing asbestos in Kilnwood Vale?
Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The right method depends on what the material is.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Asbestos removal near Kilnwood Vale
After removal, the work area is cleaned and the waste is double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken away, with a consignment note for your records. Common materials are flue pipes, textured coatings and floor tiles, and people normally contact us about Artex before plastering and old sheds and coal bunkers.
In Kilnwood Vale, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Which option is right?
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 in the way of work, removal is generally right.

Duty holders and landlords in Kilnwood Vale
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

Afterwards
If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, because the plan may need to change.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Photos of the material and the route in help
Things not to do
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
Common reasons for removal jobs in Kilnwood Vale
Most removal happens because building work would disturb asbestos: whatever the work will touch should come out first.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Asbestos garages
- Loft water tanks
- Old flues
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
At a school such as The Bewbush Academy, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.
