Why people call us in Cores End
Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and insulating board release fibres much more easily than asbestos cement, so their removal is licensed.
Typical jobs in Cores End include:
- Old cold water tanks
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
At a school such as St Paul's Church of England Combined School, removal would be arranged with the duty holder, with the area empty.

Asbestos removal for Cores End properties
Before removal, the material has to be identified. If it hasn’t been tested, we sample it first, since the right method depends on what it is. People often contact us about Artex ceilings before renovation and sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos, including floor tiles, cement roof sheets and textured coatings.
In places like Cores End, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Cores End
Do you cover Cores End from London?
We cover Cores End, about 27 miles from central London.
Do older homes in Cores End have asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Cores End can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Can asbestos be left in place?
In many cases it can stay: sound material that will not be disturbed can be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
What it costs
What drives the price:
- Licensed or non-licensed
- Disposal costs
- The survey scope
- How much there is
Sometimes a test shows removal isn’t needed, because the material is clear.
