DIY and asbestos
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Asbestos removal near North Heath
If your builder has found suspect material in North Heath, work should stop there and people kept out. We can test it and, if needed, plan its removal. Common materials are flue pipes, floor tiles and gutters and downpipes, and typical jobs are broken sheets in gardens and asbestos found during building work.
Rural removal near North Heath can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Weighing up your options
DIY removal might look cheaper, but HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and the waste still has to go to a permitted site with the right paperwork. There’s no one-size price, as every job differs. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.
What you get
- Reports and results you can share

The process
Unexpected materials mean we pause and discuss, before changing the plan. We keep the work area clear of other people while we work, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere. In winter, the light goes in North Heath by about 3:55pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

- We check whether it’s licensed, notifiable or non-licensed work
- We agree a date and any notification needed
- On the day we set up, remove and bag the material
- We dispose of the waste legally and send the paperwork
Before we arrive

For businesses and landlords in North Heath
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
The scope of asbestos removal
A few things to be aware of:
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
- We do not remove anything until it’s been identified
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
What we deal with
- Water tanks
- Artex and textured coatings
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Garage and shed roofs
- Flue pipes
- Gutters and downpipes
- Panels and boards
- Soffits (cement)
- Bitumen roof felt
Where asbestos turns up
Materials deteriorate with age: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is often when people decide to remove them.
You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Garage roof sheets
- Debris left from a previous job
- Asbestos found during building work
- Artex ceilings before renovation
Landlords near Pulborough station often time removal for when a property is empty.
Questions to ask before you book
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
- Which areas and materials are covered
- Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
- Waste disposal and the consignment note

- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Photos of the material and the route in help

North Heath: your questions answered
Do you work near Pulborough station?
Yes, we cover North Heath and the area towards Pulborough station, about 2.4 miles south-west.
Do you come out to small villages like North Heath?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Unless it’s already been identified, yes: the way it’s removed depends on the material.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.

- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
