Asbestos removal in Hadley
Questions from Hadley
Do you cover Hadley and the area around New Barnet station?
Yes, we cover Hadley and the area towards New Barnet station, about 1.3 miles south-east.
Do older homes in Hadley have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
Often it can stay: sound material that will not be disturbed can be left and managed. Record it and keep an eye on it.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Where does the asbestos go?
We bag or wrap it, label it and take it to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you receive the consignment note.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
HSE’s advice is not to do it yourself, and higher-risk materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
How quickly can you come out?
That depends on the work and current bookings. You will get available dates with the quote.
How asbestos removal works in Hadley
After removal, the work area is cleaned and the waste is double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken away, with a consignment note for your records. Whether it’s garage roof sheets and Artex ceilings before renovation, we deal with textured coatings, floor tiles and water tanks.
In Hadley, 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, so you have a record.

What it might be made of
Floor tiles
Black bitumen adhesive may need treating separately.
Insulating board and lagging
It needs an HSE-licensed contractor and 14 days’ notice.
Good to know
Worth knowing before booking:
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
- Making good is normally a separate job
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.

Common reasons for removal jobs in Hadley
Some asbestos is higher risk than other kinds: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, so their removal is licensed.
You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Asbestos garages
- Floor tiles before a new floor
- Cement flues and gutters
- Artex ceilings before renovation
For properties on main roads such as the A1081, we plan parking and loading in advance, as main roads can be restricted.

Responsibilities for owners
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Hadley must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
What happens next
If anything turns up during removal that wasn’t expected, we stop and tell you, as the method may need to change.
Once we’re done:
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Book the replacement before removal
- Share any survey or test results
- Photos of the material and the route in help
What to avoid
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste.
Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
Your options compared
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 test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
Why choose us
- Accredited laboratory results
- Homes, rented property and workplaces
- Work done to the regulations

If anything unexpected turns up, we stop and talk to you before carrying on. In winter, the light goes in Hadley by about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.
