Asbestos removal for Nyetimber properties
After removal, the work area is cleaned and the waste is double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken away, with a consignment note for your records. Typical jobs include sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos and old waste on site, involving gutters and downpipes, textured coatings and cement soffits.
Properties in towns and villages like Nyetimber with larger plots can have more than one cement-roofed building, which can often be dealt with together. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Nyetimber questions
Could my house in Nyetimber contain asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Nyetimber may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
How far is Nyetimber from London?
We cover Nyetimber, about 57 miles from central London.
Do you need a licence to remove asbestos?
It varies: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings typically aren’t licensed.
Do you work in flats?
We do. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings usually aren’t licensed.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials must only be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor.

After we’ve finished in Nyetimber
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you get the consignment note showing where the waste went.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Book the replacement before removal
- Share any survey or test results
Things not to do
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Responsibilities for owners
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
Materials we deal with
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.
Water tanks and flues
Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.
DIY and asbestos
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
Choosing the right option
Covering or sealing asbestos is sometimes an alternative to removal, but it remains in place and has to be recorded. The cost of asbestos removal depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.
