About our asbestos removal in De Beauvoir Town
Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If nobody has tested it, we take a sample first, because the method depends on the material. People often contact us about finds during refurbishment and cement flues and gutters, involving floor tiles, water tanks and cement soffits.
In De Beauvoir Town, removal often involves flats, small gardens and limited access, so access and parking are planned carefully. Paperwork is part of every job, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

Common questions in De Beauvoir Town
Do you cover De Beauvoir Town and the area around Dalston Junction station?
Yes. Dalston Junction station is close to the centre of De Beauvoir Town, and we cover the whole area.
Can you work in De Beauvoir Town with London’s parking rules?
We do. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
It varies: licensed work covers lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board; cement and textured coatings typically are not licensed.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice.
Where does the asbestos go?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Should all asbestos be removed?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
The process
Waste is double-bagged or wrapped in heavy polythene and labelled as we go, then loaded for disposal at a permitted site. It helps if we can park nearby, so let us know about any restrictions.

Should you do it yourself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
What we deal with in De Beauvoir Town
Until 1999, asbestos went into many building products, so buildings across Greater London built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.
Get advice if you are dealing with any of these:
- Old waste on site
- Asbestos garages
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
In older properties in De Beauvoir Town, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we identify materials before planning removal.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you’ll get a consignment note
- Which laboratory analyses samples
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
- Whether VAT is included
Looking after things afterwards
If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
- Send photos of the material and the access
- File the consignment note
- Plan any replacement work before the removal date
Don’ts
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris.
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
