How asbestos removal works in Newpound Common
Removal is planned, not improvised: the method, the controls, the waste and any notification needed, before anyone starts. We often deal with floor tiles, textured coatings and flue pipes, and typical jobs are broken sheets in gardens and vinyl and thermoplastic tiles.
In Newpound Common, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. We identify materials before planning removal, as the right approach depends on the material.

For businesses and landlords in Newpound Common
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Newpound Common, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Newpound Common: your questions answered
Do you cover Newpound Common from London?
Newpound Common is about 37 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you cover small places like Newpound Common?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
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.
When can you start?
That depends on the work and current bookings. We’ll give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
What’s included, and what isn’t
Some limits to bear in mind:
- Making good is normally a separate job
- We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Common materials
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Garage and shed roofs
- Artex and textured coatings
- Bitumen roof felt
- Water tanks
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Gutters and downpipes
- Soffits (cement)
- Flue pipes
- Panels and boards
Your options compared
Should it come out? 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. Doing several things in one visit can help, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
What you get
- We identify first and remove only what needs removing
- Domestic and commercial work
- Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone
- Waste paperwork for every removal
Read how we quote and our cost guide.
Doing it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
Looking after things afterwards
If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, for anyone working there later.
After we’ve finished:
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Book the replacement before removal
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
Avoid these
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

Where asbestos turns up
Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so pre-2000 buildings across West Sussex may contain it.
In older properties, we often see:
- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Old cold water tanks
- Asbestos found during building work
In older buildings across Newpound Common, asbestos may be in later additions, so we identify materials before planning removal.
