About our asbestos removal in Hatch End
You don’t always have to remove asbestos. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we’ll say so. Typical jobs include asbestos garages and cement water tanks in lofts, involving water tanks, cement soffits and cement roof sheets.
In towns and villages like Hatch End, outbuildings are often only reachable through a house or lane, so we plan how to get the waste out. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Hatch End
Do you cover Hatch End and the area around Hatch End station?
Yes. Hatch End station is about 0.6 miles north of Hatch End, and we cover both.
Is asbestos common in Hatch End homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can asbestos be left in place?
Often it can stay: if it’s in good condition and out of the way, it can stay. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Is asbestos removal licensed?
It varies: lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, while most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
After the job
Making good, such as a new roof or ceiling, is normally a separate job, so plan it in advance.
Going forward:
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Share any survey or test results
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
What to avoid
Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.
Never sweep or vacuum asbestos debris; keep people away and ask for advice.
DIY and asbestos
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
What happens
We start by setting up and segregating the work area, then keep the material damp throughout. Parking close by makes the day easier, so let us know about any restrictions. We plan outdoor jobs in Hatch End to finish before dark: that means by about 3:55pm in December, or about 9:25pm in June.
- Get in touch with the details of the job
- We check whether it’s licensed, notifiable or non-licensed work
- We book the work and notify if required
- On the day we set up, remove and bag the material
- We dispose of the waste legally and send the paperwork
How to prepare
- Keep the area clear of children and pets
- Clear access to the area, loft or garage
- Mention any damage before we arrive

Landlords, managing agents and employers
For managing agents and freeholders in Hatch End, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Which option is right?
Be wary of a price that seems too low: proper controls, protective equipment, a registered waste carrier and disposal cost money. Ask to see the waste paperwork. Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.
