About our asbestos removal in Mannings Heath
You don’t always have to remove asbestos. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we will say so. From old waste on site and old sheds and coal bunkers, we deal with cement soffits, gutters and downpipes and cement roof sheets.
In places like Mannings Heath, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, where access across fields or yards needs planning. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Questions from Mannings Heath
Could my house in Mannings Heath contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work near Horsham station?
Yes, we cover Mannings Heath and the area towards Horsham station, about 2.1 miles north-west.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area in the job.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, always.

- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
