Asbestos removal near Bedford Park

Which option is right?
Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and won’t be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is normally right. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

FAQs for Bedford Park
Do older homes in Bedford Park have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Bedford Park may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work in Bedford Park despite London parking restrictions?
We do. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and don’t clean it up yourself. Then get in touch and we will advise.
Do I need to move out?
Outdoor work rarely affects you indoors. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.
Common reasons for removal jobs in Bedford Park
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so buildings across Greater London built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to removal jobs:
- Garage roof sheets
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Debris left from a previous job
Landlords near South Acton station often time removal for when a property is empty.
What to look for in a quote
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- Waste disposal and the consignment note
- Which areas and materials are covered
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
What happens next
Making good, such as a new roof or ceiling, is normally a separate job, so plan it in advance.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
- File the consignment note
- Tell us about parking and access
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
Avoid these
Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
For businesses and landlords in Bedford Park
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
What it might be made of
Bitumen and felt
Some old roof felts and bitumen products contain asbestos, which is usually well bound.
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement is the most common material we remove: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.
How it works
Unexpected materials mean we pause and discuss, rather than carrying on regardless. We arrive at the agreed time, check the area and explain what we’ll do before we start. Late-December sunset in Bedford Park is about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.
