Asbestos help in Belsize Park

Asbestos removal near Belsize Park

Before removal, the material has to be identified. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, since the right method depends on what it is. Typical jobs include vinyl and thermoplastic tiles and garage roofs and whole garages, involving water tanks, floor tiles and textured coatings.

Removal jobs around Belsize Park often mean working in flats, back gardens and tight spaces, so we plan parking, access and the route for the waste. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Materials we deal with

Textured coatings

Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.

Water tanks and flues

Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.

Limits to be aware of

The usual limits are:

  • Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
  • Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
  • Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling

If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.

More about this service

Afterwards

Any asbestos left elsewhere should stay on record, so future trades know about it.

After the job, keep these in mind:

  • Tell us about any previous survey
  • Photos of the material and the route in help
  • Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Tell us about parking and access

Things not to do

Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.

Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.

Which option is right?

Remove, or leave and manage? Sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. Every quote says whether VAT is included.

Why choose us

  • Domestic and commercial work
  • Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
  • Across London and the South East
  • Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note

What to check before you book

What happens

We start by setting up and segregating the work area, then keep the material damp throughout. The work area is kept clear while we are working, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere. Outdoor removal in Belsize Park is planned to finish in daylight: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:20pm.

  1. Tell us what needs removing and send photos
  2. We identify it if needed and plan the method
  3. We send a quote covering the work and the waste
  4. We remove it with controls to keep fibres down
  5. The area is cleaned and you get the consignment note

How to prepare

  • Keep the area clear of children and pets
  • Move things out of the way carefully

Helpful guides

Common questions in Belsize Park

Do you work near South Hampstead station?

Yes. South Hampstead station is about 0.7 miles west of Belsize Park, and we cover both.

Do you work in Belsize Park despite London parking restrictions?

We do. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan.

Can I stay at home during removal?

That depends: outdoor jobs don’t generally affect you. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.

Do you test before removing asbestos in Belsize Park?

Yes, if it hasn’t been tested: the way it’s removed depends on the material.

Do you work in flats?

Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.

My builder has found asbestos. What now?

Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.

Does weather affect the work?

That depends: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.

Do you give written quotes?

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

Doing it yourself?

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

For businesses and landlords in Belsize Park

Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
