About asbestos removal in BN27
Once the material is out, we clean up and bag or wrap the waste, and you get the waste paperwork. We often deal with flue pipes, cement roof sheets and textured coatings, and people generally contact us about flue pipes, gutters and downpipes and sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos.
We wear disposable coveralls and suitable respirators, and nobody else enters the work area.

Asbestos removal across BN27
Across BN27, we remove asbestos cement, textured coatings, tiles, flues and tanks, from the bigger towns to the smallest villages.
Hailsham: Landlords near Polegate station often time removal for when a property is empty. Older buildings in Hailsham, near The Parish Church of Saint Mary or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal. We plan outdoor jobs in Hailsham to finish before dark: that means by about 3:55pm in December, or about 9:15pm in June.
What it costs
What changes the cost:
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- The quantity or area
- How much waste there is
- What the material is and its state
Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
Sending photos
Before you send photos, a few tips:
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- A photo of the whole area
- An idea of size
- Street parking nearby
Tell us about the material, its location and your plans. Then ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
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.
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Where asbestos turns up
Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, so their removal is licensed.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Garage roof sheets
- Debris left from a previous job
- Artex before plastering
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
After the job
If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, because the plan may need to change.
- Share any survey or test results
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
- Book the replacement before removal
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

The scope of asbestos removal
So you know what to expect:
- Making good is normally a separate job
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
FAQs for BN27
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Do not try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice.
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 help a business or landlord?
Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We will identify it and advise on removal.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
