What else we do in Storrington
Materials we deal with
Textured coatings
We soften coatings and remove them wet, never sanding or dry scraping. Large-scale steam or gel removal must be notified.
Floor tiles
Black bitumen adhesive may need treating separately.
Afterwards
Keep the consignment note with your property records: it proves legal disposal.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Photos of the material and the route in help
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Book the replacement before removal
- File the consignment note
Don’ts
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
Responsibilities for owners
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Storrington must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
If your business premises in Storrington were built before 2000, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
FAQs for Storrington
Is asbestos common in Storrington homes?
If your home in Storrington was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work near Pulborough station?
Yes. Pulborough station is about 3.9 miles north-west of Storrington, and we cover both.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is generally needed.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You cannot tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Typical removal jobs in Storrington
Materials deteriorate with age: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is often when people decide to remove them.
These are some of the things we deal with in Storrington:
- Textured coatings
- Cement flues and gutters
- Old cold water tanks
- Materials found mid-project
For rentals close to Pulborough station, removal fits neatly between tenancies.
What your quote should include

What it costs
The cost depends on:
- The survey scope
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- Waste quantity and disposal
- Location, parking and any London charges
A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.
