Is DIY asbestos removal allowed?

HSE advises against removing asbestos yourself. Licensed materials must only be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.

Does all asbestos have to be removed?

It doesn’t always have to come out: material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.

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.

Asbestos removal in Stonegate

Higher-risk materials such as pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, which must be carried out by a contractor holding an HSE licence. We will explain what applies to your job in Stonegate. Common materials are gutters and downpipes, textured coatings and flue pipes, and typical jobs are finds during refurbishment and floor tiles before a new floor.

In a village like Stonegate, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Your options compared

DIY removal might look cheaper, but HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and disposal still has to be done properly. Every quote says whether VAT is included.

Why choose us

  • Waste paperwork for every removal
  • Identify first, remove only when needed
  • Records for your files
  • Homes, rented property and workplaces

Take a look at how we quote and published price ranges.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Stonegate must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

What it might be made of

Water tanks and flues

Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.

Textured coatings

We soften coatings and remove them wet, never sanding or dry scraping. Large-scale steam or gel removal must be notified.

What affects the price in Stonegate

The biggest factors in the price are:

  • The type of material and its condition
  • Waste quantity and disposal
  • Location, parking and any London charges
  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space

We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.

Photos that help

When you send photos, these help most:

  • Visible markings
  • Cracks or breaks
  • Street parking nearby
  • A picture of the whole area

Why people call us in Stonegate

Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so buildings across East Sussex built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.

Typical jobs in Stonegate include:

  • Asbestos garages
  • Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
  • Old sheds and coal bunkers
  • Materials found mid-project

Older buildings in Stonegate, near Church of St Peter or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we test before we plan.

More about this service

Doing it yourself?

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

How it works

If we find more than expected, or something different, we stop and talk to you, before changing the plan. On the day, we check the area and talk you through the plan first. Late-December sunset in Stonegate is about 3:55pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

  1. Send us the postcode and photos
  2. We work out what category the work falls into
  3. We book the work and notify if required
  4. On the day we set up, remove and bag the material
  5. The waste goes to a permitted site with a consignment note

Before we arrive

  • Let neighbours know if the work is near them
  • Mention any parking restrictions
  • Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
