Can I do it myself?

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Asbestos removal for Twineham properties

Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. From broken sheets in gardens and finds during refurbishment, we cover cement soffits, gutters and downpipes and textured coatings and more.

In places like Twineham, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, where access across fields or yards needs planning. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

Why people call us in Twineham

Selling or letting a property can prompt removal of obvious materials, though in good condition it doesn’t always need to go.

If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:

Debris left from a previous job
Cement flues and gutters
Materials found mid-project
Loft water tanks

In older buildings across Twineham, asbestos may be in later additions, so we identify materials before planning removal.

More about this service

For landlords, agents and businesses

If you manage or own a block in Twineham, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Twineham questions

Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the South Downs National Park?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

Is asbestos common in Twineham homes?

That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Twineham may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.

Do you give written quotes?

Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.

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.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.

Do you work in Twineham?

Yes, Twineham is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.

Can you help with a shop or office?

We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.

What happens

We wear disposable coveralls and suitable respirators, and nobody else enters the work area. We arrive at the agreed time, check the area and explain what we will do before we start. In winter, the light goes in Twineham by about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.
