How asbestos removal works in Bounds Green
Removal is planned, not improvised: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified. From outbuildings with cement roofs and debris left from a previous job, we cover water tanks, cement roof sheets and textured coatings and more.
In Bounds Green, removal often involves flats, small gardens and limited access, so access and parking are planned carefully. We start with a clear answer: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Your options compared
DIY removal might look cheaper, but HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to remove asbestos yourself, and the waste still has to go to a permitted site with the right paperwork. The cost of asbestos removal depends on the job: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.
What you get
- Written quotes that say what’s included
- Houses, flats and business premises
- Samples analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Covering London and the South East
Take a look at how we price jobs and our cost guide.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
What it costs
Prices vary with:
- How much waste there is
- The survey scope
- The category of work
- The type of material and its condition
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.
What to photograph
When you send photos, these help most:
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
Send us the address in Bounds Green, a description and some photos: ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.

FAQs for Bounds Green
Could my house in Bounds Green contain asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Bounds Green may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you work in Bounds Green with London’s parking rules?
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?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
Do you cover Bounds Green?
Yes, Bounds Green is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
Do I need to move out?
That depends: outdoor jobs do not usually affect you. For indoor work, the area is closed off and kept clear until we have finished.
Do you test before removing asbestos in Bounds Green?
Yes, if it hasn’t been tested: the method depends on what the material is.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
A closer look at the materials
Insulating board and lagging
That work must be done by a contractor holding an HSE licence, with notification 14 days ahead.
Asbestos cement
Cement products make up most removal jobs: roofs, gutters, flues and tanks. It’s kept damp and removed whole where possible.
Where asbestos turns up
Sometimes damage forces the issue.
In older properties, we often see:
- Old waste on site
- Artex before plastering
- Cement flues and gutters
- Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles
For properties on main roads such as the A109, we plan parking and loading in advance, as main roads can be restricted.
