How asbestos removal works in Farringdon
In homes, in Farringdon as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. Work on these is typically non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed under HSE guidance, but it still needs the right controls. Whether it’s sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos and asbestos found during building work, we cover floor tiles, textured coatings and flue pipes and more.
In places like Farringdon, outbuildings and farm buildings are common removal jobs, so we plan access across yards and fields. Everything is explained in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Why people call us in Farringdon
Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, so their removal is licensed.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Garage roof sheets
- Sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos
Landlords near Alton station often time removal for when a property is empty.

After we’ve finished in Farringdon
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
To avoid problems in future:
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
- Tell us about parking and access
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
What to avoid
Do not let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of.
Do not start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
What it costs
What drives the price:
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- The category of work
- Location, parking and any London charges
- Material and condition
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
Sending photos
Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- A close-up from a safe distance
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
Photos from a safe distance help: do not touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
DIY and asbestos
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Weighing up your options
Removing asbestos before building work avoids stopping the job halfway, when everything has to wait for it to be dealt with. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.
