About our asbestos removal in Hanger Hill
Once the material is out, we clean up and bag or wrap the waste, and you get the waste paperwork. From old cold water tanks and textured coatings, we deal with gutters and downpipes, textured coatings and cement roof sheets and more.
In places like Hanger Hill, outbuildings are often only reachable through a house or lane, which affects how the waste is carried out. We explain what we find in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Prices and what affects them
Quotes vary because of:
- Access to the area
- The quantity or area
- Location, parking and any London charges
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
Dealing with asbestos before building work is usually cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
What to photograph
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:
- An idea of size
- Labels, if any
- Where we could park
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it

Should you do 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.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

HSE advises the public not to try, and licensed materials must only be handled by a licensed contractor.

First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.

No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.
