Asbestos removal near Pevensey Bay
How asbestos removal works in Pevensey Bay
Before removal, the material has to be identified. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. People often contact us about loft water tanks and Artex before plastering, including textured coatings, floor tiles and cement roof sheets.
Homes in Pevensey Bay with bigger gardens can have more than one cement-roofed building, which can often be dealt with together. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

What it might be made of

Insulating board, lagging and sprayed coatings are licensed work in most cases.
Asbestos cement
Cement products make up most removal jobs: roofs, gutters, flues and tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.

Pevensey Bay questions
Do you work near Pevensey Bay station?
Yes. Pevensey Bay station is about 0.5 miles north-west of Pevensey Bay, and we cover both.
Do you cover Pevensey Bay from London?
Pevensey Bay is about 51 miles from central London, well within our area.
Can asbestos be left in place?
In many cases it can stay: if it’s in good condition and out of the way, it can stay. Record it and keep an eye on it.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Send us the details of the premises.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
Sometimes: lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, while most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Weighing up your options
Be wary of a price that seems too low: controls, equipment and legal disposal all cost money. Always ask for the consignment note. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
Why us?
- No removal until we know what it is
- Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
- Work done to the regulations
Read our prices page or published price ranges.
Afterwards
If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Book the replacement before removal
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
Avoid these
Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.
Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Should you do it yourself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
