Common questions in Goodmayes
Do you cover Goodmayes and the area around Goodmayes station?
Yes, we cover Goodmayes, including the streets around Goodmayes station.
Is asbestos common in Goodmayes homes?
If your home in Goodmayes was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
What happens to the waste?
It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note as your record.
How can I get a price?
Just ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
Sometimes: lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, while most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
If it hasn’t been identified, yes. The right method depends on what the material is.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
Asbestos removal near Goodmayes
After removal, the work area is cleaned and the waste is double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken away, and you get the waste paperwork. Typical jobs include old floor tiles and black adhesive and broken sheets in gardens, involving cement roof sheets, floor tiles and cement soffits.
In Goodmayes, removal often involves flats, small gardens and limited access, so access and parking are planned carefully. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

A closer look at the materials
Floor tiles
Vinyl and thermoplastic tiles are lifted whole where possible with hand tools and wetting, never with power tools.
Insulating board and lagging
It needs an HSE-licensed contractor and 14 days’ notice.
Weighing up your options
Should it come out? Sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is usually right. A price that looks too good to be true often is: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
Why people choose us
- Waste paperwork for every removal
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
- We identify first and remove only what needs removing
