Asbestos removal near Greenhill
Removal is planned, not improvised: the method, the controls, the waste and any notification needed, before anyone starts. People often contact us about loft water tanks and old waste on site, including water tanks, flue pipes and floor tiles.
In Greenhill, removal often involves flats, small gardens and limited access, so we plan parking, access and the route for the waste. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, for your records.

Responsibilities for owners
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
If you manage or own a block in Greenhill, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.
Choosing the right option
Dealing with asbestos before work starts keeps the project on track, rather than halting work when it’s found. Doing several things in one visit can help, such as testing several materials at once.

Don’ts
Do not sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Greenhill
Most removal happens because building work would disturb asbestos: whatever the work will touch should come out first.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Common situations include:
- Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Asbestos found during building work
In older properties in Greenhill, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so materials are identified first.

A closer look at the materials
Textured coatings
Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement is the most common material we remove: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. We wet it and take it down in whole pieces where we can.
Can I do it myself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.

Helpful guides
Your questions about asbestos removal in Greenhill
Do you work in Greenhill despite London parking restrictions?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do older homes in Greenhill have asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
What does removal cost?
It depends on the material, how much there is, its condition, access and disposal. We quote each job individually.
Do you work in Greenhill?
Yes. We cover Greenhill and the surrounding area as part of Greater London. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is generally needed.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
It depends on what we do: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
