Asbestos removal near Maidenbower
Looking after things afterwards
Keep the consignment note with your property records: it shows the asbestos was disposed of legally.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- File the consignment note
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Tell us about any previous survey
Avoid these
Don’t jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Asbestos removal near Maidenbower
Much of the asbestos found in homes is asbestos cement, textured coating or floor tiles. Work on these is typically non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, which still means proper controls. Typical jobs include floor tiles before a new floor and flue pipes, gutters and downpipes, including cement soffits, flue pipes and water tanks.
Properties in towns and villages like Maidenbower with larger plots can have more than one cement-roofed building. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

Maidenbower: your questions answered
How far is Maidenbower from London?
We cover Maidenbower, about 27 miles from central London.
Do older homes in Maidenbower have asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Maidenbower?
Yes, we do: Maidenbower is within the area we cover in West Sussex. Send the postcode and a few photos and we’ll quote.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
Will I get the price in writing?
Always: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.

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 in the way of work, removal is usually right. Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
