Weighing up your options

Very cheap quotes can be a warning sign: proper controls, protective equipment, a registered waste carrier and disposal cost money. Always ask for the consignment note. Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

How we work in Crews Hill

  • Legal disposal, with paperwork
  • Identify first, remove only when needed
  • Covering London and the South East
  • Records for your files

What happens next

How it works

On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, then keep the material damp throughout. We arrive at the agreed time, check the area and explain what we will do before we start. We plan outdoor jobs in Crews Hill to finish before dark: that means by about 3:50pm in December, or about 9:20pm in June.

  2. We identify it if needed and plan the method
  3. You get a written quote, including waste disposal
  4. The material is removed safely
  5. We clean up and send you the waste paperwork

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear access to the area, loft or garage

Why people call us in Crews Hill

Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, which is why that work is licensed.

Typical jobs in Crews Hill include:

  • Textured coatings
  • Garage roof sheets
  • Cement water tanks in lofts
  • Old sheds and coal bunkers

For non-domestic buildings like St John's CofE Primary School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.

  • That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
  • Any exclusions
  • The scope of the job, in writing
  • Suitable insurance for the work

What to check before booking

Doing it yourself?

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

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.

Crews Hill questions

Can you work in Crews Hill 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.

Could my house in Crews Hill contain asbestos?

Any home in Crews Hill built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do I need to move out?

Outdoor work rarely affects you indoors. Indoor work areas are sealed off and kept clear while the work is done.

Does weather affect the work?

Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.

Can I put asbestos in a skip?

No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.

What if asbestos is found during building work?

Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.

Do you give written quotes?

Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.

Is asbestos dangerous?

It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.

Materials we deal with

Insulating board and lagging

Work on sprayed coatings, and most work on lagging and asbestos insulating board, is licensed.

Water tanks and flues

Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.

What’s included, and what is not

Worth knowing before booking:

  • Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
  • Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is typically separate
  • Some jobs must be notified first, so the timing needs planning

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.

What we deal with

  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Bitumen roof felt
  • Panels and boards
  • Gutters and downpipes
  • Soffits (cement)
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
