Asbestos removal in Old Shoreham
Every removal job in Old Shoreham is planned first: the method, the controls, the waste and any notification needed. We often deal with flue pipes, cement soffits and gutters and downpipes, and people generally contact us about flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and outbuildings with cement roofs.
In towns and villages like Old Shoreham, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. We only recommend work that is needed.

FAQs for Old Shoreham
Do you work near Shoreham-By-Sea station?
Yes. Shoreham-By-Sea station is about 0.7 miles east of Old Shoreham, and we cover both.
How far is Old Shoreham from London?
Old Shoreham is about 47 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
What happens to the waste?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you get the consignment note.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and don’t clean it up yourself. Then get in touch and we will advise.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we will arrange to see it.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. To do that, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
What affects the price in Old Shoreham
Prices vary with:
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- The quantity or area
- The type of material and its condition
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
Sometimes a test shows removal isn’t needed, because the material is clear.
Sending photos
To help us quote quickly, send:
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- Cracks or breaks
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- Approximate dimensions
We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749 to get started.
Good to know
So you know what to expect:
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is normally separate
- We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified
- Some jobs must be notified first, so the timing needs planning
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Common materials
- Garage and shed roofs
- Artex and textured coatings
- Bitumen roof felt
- Flue pipes
- Soffits (cement)
- Water tanks
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Panels and boards
- Gutters and downpipes
- Floor tiles and adhesive
Should you do it yourself?
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Which option is right?
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. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.
Why people choose us
- Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
- Identify first, remove only when needed
- Written quotes that say what’s included

Responsibilities for owners
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Materials we deal with
Floor tiles
Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with power tools.
Bitumen and felt
They’re removed by hand.
Afterwards
Unexpected finds are discussed with you before we carry on, as the method may need to change.
Once we are done:
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- File the consignment note
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
Avoid these
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
