Asbestos removal in Enfield Highway
We keep materials damp, remove them whole where possible and never use power tools on them, so fibre release stays as low as possible. From asbestos garages and finds during refurbishment, we deal with cement soffits, gutters and downpipes and floor tiles and more.
In towns and villages like Enfield Highway, outbuildings are often only reachable through a house or lane, which affects how the waste is carried out. We start with a clear answer: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

FAQs for Enfield Highway
Do you cover Enfield Highway and the area around Brimsdown station?
Yes, we cover Enfield Highway and the area towards Brimsdown station, about 0.6 miles south-east.
Can you work in Enfield Highway 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.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Do you test before removing asbestos in Enfield Highway?
Yes, if it hasn’t been tested: the way it’s removed depends on the material.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
What does removal cost?
It depends on the material, how much there is, its condition, access and disposal. We quote each job individually.
When can you start?
That depends on the work and current bookings. We will give you dates when we quote.
Where asbestos turns up
Selling or letting a property can prompt removal of obvious materials, although sound material can often stay.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to removal jobs:
- Garage roofs and whole garages
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
- Finds during refurbishment
- Old waste on site
Older buildings in Enfield Highway, near St James' Church or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal.
What your quote should include
- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you’ll get a consignment note
- What you will receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
- What isn’t included
- Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed
