Asbestos removal in Pease Pottage
We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, to keep fibre release as low as possible. People often contact us about outbuildings with cement roofs and old waste on site, involving cement soffits, gutters and downpipes and textured coatings.
Homes in Pease Pottage with bigger gardens may have several outbuildings with cement roofs. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

Where asbestos turns up
Not all asbestos materials are equal: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, so their removal is licensed.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Loft water tanks
- Asbestos found during building work
- Old flues
- Textured coatings
For rentals close to Crawley station, removal fits neatly between tenancies.

Pease Pottage: your questions answered
Do you work near Crawley station?
Yes, we cover Pease Pottage and the area towards Crawley station, about 2 miles north.
Could my house in Pease Pottage contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Pease Pottage can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
What happens to the waste?
It goes to a permitted site, properly packaged, with a registered carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
What does removal cost?
There’s no fixed price: it depends on the material, quantity, condition, access and disposal.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Should you do it yourself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
