Asbestos removal near Newchapel
Asbestos removal near Newchapel
You don’t always have to remove asbestos. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we will tell you honestly when that’s the case. People often contact us about old sheds and coal bunkers and old flues, including cement soffits, water tanks and floor tiles.
In a village like Newchapel, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, where access across fields or yards needs planning. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Looking after things afterwards
Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
To avoid problems in future:
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
- File the consignment note
Don’ts
Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.
Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.
Questions from Newchapel
Do you cover Newchapel from London?
We cover Newchapel, about 23 miles from central London.
Do you work on properties in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
What does licensed work mean?
It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
The process
Waste is double-bagged or wrapped in heavy polythene and labelled as we go, then loaded for disposal at a permitted site. Before we start, we walk through the job with you and answer any questions. We plan outdoor jobs in Newchapel to finish before dark: that means by about 3:55pm in December, or about 9:20pm in June.
- Share photos, the postcode and any survey or test you have
- We identify the material and work out whether the job is licensed, notifiable or non-licensed
- A written quote follows, covering method, controls and disposal
- We set up, keep the material damp and take it out whole where we can
- Everything is cleaned up, and the waste paperwork follows
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking and access
- Tell us about anything that is already damaged
- Clear access to the area, loft or garage

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

- Material and condition
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- Travel and parking
- The size of the job
Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

Doing it yourself?

Where asbestos turns up
Old materials break down over time: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is when removal comes up.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Artex before plastering
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Materials found mid-project
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
At a school such as Imberhorne School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.
