Asbestos removal for Hatford properties
Asbestos removal in Hatford covers homes, rental property and workplaces: garage roofs, flues, water tanks, Artex and floor tiles among them. Each job follows HSE guidance, and the waste goes to a permitted site. Typical materials include gutters and downpipes, cement soffits and textured coatings, and typical jobs are debris left from a previous job and cement flues and gutters.
In Hatford, waste may have a long carry to the vehicle, so we plan the route before the day. Nothing is added to the job that you do not need, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

A closer look at the materials
Textured coatings
Textured coatings are removed with wet or gel methods, never dry-scraped or sanded. Large-scale steam or gel removal must be notified.
Bitumen and felt
They’re removed by hand.
Responsibilities for owners
For managing agents and freeholders in Hatford, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
How it works
We start by setting up and segregating the work area, and keep the material wet as we work. It helps if we can park nearby, so let us know about any restrictions. Late-December sunset in Hatford is about 4:00pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.
- Describe the material and send pictures
- We test the material if needed
- We plan the job and send a written quote
- We remove the material with controls to keep fibres down
- The area is cleaned and the waste goes to a permitted site, with paperwork
How to prepare
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
- Tell us about anything that is already damaged
- Move things out of the way carefully

Your questions about asbestos removal in Hatford
Do you cover Hatford from London?
Hatford is about 62 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do older homes in Hatford have asbestos?
If your home in Hatford was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, which is why identifying it first matters.
How can I get a price?
Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.
What happens next
If licensed work is needed, a UKAS-accredited analyst carries out a four-stage clearance before the area is reoccupied.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Tell us about parking and access
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Share any survey or test results
What to avoid
Do not let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of.
Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
