DIY and asbestos
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

Little Horsted: your questions answered
Do you cover small places like Little Horsted?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you work near Uckfield station?
Yes, we cover Little Horsted and the area towards Uckfield station, about 1.3 miles north.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
It depends on the material and the job. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed work; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.

Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
How quickly can you come out?
It depends on the job and our diary. You’ll get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.

Water tanks and flues
Tanks and flues are disconnected first, then removed with minimal breakage.
