Every job is planned to HSE guidance, with the waste taken to a permitted site. People often contact us about finds during refurbishment and old waste on site, including floor tiles, water tanks and gutters and downpipes.

Where asbestos turns up
Materials deteriorate with age: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is when removal comes up.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:
- Debris left from a previous job
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Old flues
For non-domestic buildings like Crofton Infant School, removal is planned with the duty holder and timed for when the area is empty.
What your quote should include
- How the work will be done, and the controls used
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- If the price includes VAT
- Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab

Crofton: your questions answered
Is asbestos common in Crofton homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work in Crofton despite London parking restrictions?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is. Then fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
Do you cover Crofton?
We do: our area includes Crofton and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos and we will quote.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials must only be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Afterwards
Keep the consignment note with your property records: it proves legal disposal.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Let us know where we can park
- File the consignment note
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
- Keep children and pets away on the day
Things not to do
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Do not put asbestos in household bins or skips.
DIY and asbestos
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
For businesses and landlords in Crofton
For managing agents and freeholders in Crofton, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
