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.
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.
Looking after things afterwards
If other asbestos remains in the building, it should still be recorded and managed, for anyone working there later.
A few practical points:
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
Things not to do
Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.
Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Tisman's Common
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so pre-2000 buildings across West Sussex may contain it.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Finds during refurbishment
- Old waste on site
In older properties in Tisman's Common, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we identify materials before planning removal.

FAQs for Tisman's Common
Do you cover small places like Tisman's Common?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you cover Tisman's Common from London?
Tisman's Common is about 33 miles from central London, well within our area.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
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 can’t tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
It depends on the material and the job. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed work; lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed.
Do I need to move out?
It depends on the job: outdoor work rarely means leaving. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
