About our asbestos removal in Hale End
Every removal job in Hale End is planned first: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified. People often contact us about garage roofs and whole garages and broken sheets in gardens, involving water tanks, gutters and downpipes and textured coatings.
In London neighbourhoods like Hale End, garages and outbuildings are often reached through the house or a rear lane, which affects how the waste is carried out. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Doing it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
A closer look at the materials
Insulating board and lagging
Insulating board, lagging and sprayed coatings are licensed work in most cases.
Asbestos cement
Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so it’s unbolted and lowered, not smashed.
For businesses and landlords in Hale End
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
If you run a business from older premises in Hale End, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.

What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Do I need to move out?
For outdoor jobs, you can normally stay put. Indoor work areas are sealed off and kept clear while the work is done.

Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
