Asbestos Surveyors in West Sussex

24/7 Asbestos Services delivers fast, UKAS-accredited asbestos surveys and laboratory testing across the whole of West Sussex—from Crawley and Horsham to Worthing, Chichester and the coastal villages in between. Whether you are a homeowner planning a loft conversion or a facilities manager overseeing a complex commercial portfolio, our goal is simple: to keep every person who enters your property safe and compliant with UK asbestos regulations.

Why Asbestos Management Still Matters in 2025

Although asbestos was banned in UK construction in 1999, the Health & Safety Executive (HSE) estimates that over five thousand asbestos-related deaths still occur each year. West Sussex’s rich mix of Victorian villas, post-war housing estates and 1960s municipal buildings means asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) are still widespread. Failure to identify and manage them can lead to costly project delays, legal action, or worse—life-changing illnesses for contractors and occupants.

Our West Sussex Asbestos Survey Services

1. Management Surveys

A management survey is the foundation of every asbestos strategy. We carry out non-intrusive sampling to locate ACMs that could be disturbed during normal occupation, producing a clear register and priority action plan.

2. Refurbishment & Demolition (R&D) Surveys

Planning a kitchen refit in Chichester or a complete strip-out in Crawley? Our R&D surveys are fully intrusive, pinpointing hidden ACMs behind walls, under floors and within ceiling voids, so your contractors can work safely and legally.

3. Pre-Purchase & Home Buyer Checks

Buying a period property near the South Downs? We offer rapid-response home-buyer asbestos inspections to give you peace of mind before exchange.

4. UKAS-Accredited Laboratory Testing

All bulk samples are analysed in a UKAS-17025 laboratory for definitive identification. Results are typically returned within 24 hours, with expedited same-day options for urgent projects.

What Sets 24/7 Asbestos Services Apart?


  • Speed: Site visits booked in as little as 24 hours.
  • Accreditation: Surveyors hold BOHS P402 & P405 qualifications and are fully UKAS-accredited.
  • Clarity: Plain-English reports with annotated floor plans and photographic evidence.
  • Local Knowledge: Decades of experience working with West Sussex planning officers, conservation teams and building control.
  • End-to-End Support: From risk assessment to removal contractor liaison, we stay with you until clearance certificates are issued.

Regulations You Must Comply With

The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 place a duty to manage on commercial property owners and anyone responsible for maintenance. Failure to hold an up-to-date asbestos register can result in fines of up to £20,000 per breach and potential criminal prosecution. Our surveys are designed to satisfy Regulation 4 requirements and to support CDM 2015 documentation for refurbishment projects.
