Why people call us in Duckett's Green
Old materials break down over time: cement sheets become brittle, coatings crack and tiles lift, which is often when people decide to remove them.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
- Asbestos found during building work
- Cement flues and gutters
- Debris left from a previous job
On busy roads like the A1080, loading the waste needs planning, so mention it.
Questions to ask before you book
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
- What category of work it is
- What you will receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you’ll get a consignment note
Materials, one by one
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.
Floor tiles
Tiles come up whole where we can, with hand tools, never with power tools.
Responsibilities for owners
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Duckett's Green must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
What it costs
Our quotes take into account:
- The quantity or area
- Disposal costs
- The type of material and its condition
- Travel and parking
How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
Photos that help
Photos often save us a visit:
- Visible markings
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- An overall view
Photos and a postcode help us quote quickly: just use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
Step by step

What else we do in Duckett's Green
Your questions about asbestos removal in Duckett's Green
Do you work near Hornsey station?
Yes, we cover Duckett's Green and the area towards Hornsey station, about 0.7 miles west.
Can you work in Duckett's Green with London’s parking rules?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it.
Do you work in flats?
We do. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
Do I need to move out?
For outdoor jobs, you can normally stay put. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always: sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The right method depends on what the material is.
What does removal cost?
Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. Every job gets a written quote.
Choosing the right option
Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and will not be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.
