Asbestos removal near Udimore
Licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, which must be carried out by a contractor holding an HSE licence. We’ll explain what applies to your job in Udimore. We often deal with floor tiles, gutters and downpipes and textured coatings, and typical jobs are cement flues and gutters and floor tiles before a new floor.
In towns and villages like Udimore, 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.

What we deal with in Udimore
Damage from DIY, storms or accidents can make removal necessary.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Common situations include:
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Old waste on site
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Garage roofs and whole garages
In older properties in Udimore, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we identify materials before planning removal.
What your quote should include
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Waste disposal and the consignment note
- What category of work it is
For landlords, agents and businesses
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
The process
Waste is double-bagged or wrapped in heavy polythene and labelled as we go, then loaded for disposal at a permitted site. We wear suitable protective equipment for the job, and use controls to keep dust down. We plan outdoor jobs in Udimore to finish before dark: that means by about 3:55pm in December, or about 9:15pm in June.

- The material is removed safely

Questions from Udimore
Is asbestos common in Udimore homes?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Udimore may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How far is Udimore from London?
We cover Udimore, about 50 miles from central London.
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?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
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. Cement and textured coatings usually aren’t licensed.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.
Limits to be aware of
To be clear about the scope:
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
What we deal with
- Water tanks
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Bitumen roof felt
- Garage and shed roofs
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Artex and textured coatings
- Flue pipes
- Panels and boards
- Soffits (cement)
- Gutters and downpipes
After we’ve finished in Udimore
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Tell us about parking and access
- Keep children and pets away on the day
Avoid these
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.
Your options compared
Sealing or enclosing is sometimes possible, but the asbestos is still there and needs recording for future work. The cost of asbestos removal depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.

Should you do it yourself?

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
