Asbestos removal in Canons Park
Much of the asbestos found in homes is asbestos cement, textured coating or floor tiles. Work on these is usually non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls. People often contact us about debris left from a previous job and flue pipes, gutters and downpipes, including cement roof sheets, floor tiles and water tanks.
In Canons Park, removal often involves flats, small gardens and limited access, so access and parking are planned carefully. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Doing it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Your options compared
Licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed? It depends on what the material is and what’s being done. See our guide to the three categories. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.

Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so buildings across Greater London built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
People normally contact us about one of these:
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Finds during refurbishment
- Asbestos garages
- Cement flues and gutters
If you let property near Mill Hill Broadway station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.

Canons Park: your questions answered
Can you work in Canons Park with London’s parking rules?
We do. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it.
Is asbestos common in Canons Park homes?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Canons Park may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Will I get the price in writing?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
What paperwork will I get?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material. Then fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
