Asbestos removal for Heathrow properties
Every removal job in Heathrow is planned first: the method, the controls, the waste and any notification needed. Typical jobs include old cold water tanks and debris left from a previous job, including cement soffits, floor tiles and cement roof sheets.
In a village like Heathrow, removal often involves barns, stables, outbuildings and farm buildings, so we plan access across yards and fields. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

DIY and asbestos
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.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Good to know
Here’s what asbestos removal covers, and what it does not:
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
- Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
- Making good is normally a separate job
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.

Responsibilities for owners
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
After we’ve finished in Heathrow
After removal, the work area is cleaned, and you receive the waste paperwork.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- File the consignment note
- Share any survey or test results
- Tell us about parking and access
- Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
Things not to do
Don’t jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

Your questions about asbestos removal in Heathrow
Do you cover Heathrow and the area around Heathrow Terminals 2 & 3 Rail station?
Yes. Heathrow Terminals 2 & 3 Rail station is close to the centre of Heathrow, and we cover the whole area.
Is asbestos common in Heathrow homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Heathrow may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Yes, if it hasn’t been tested: the way it’s removed depends on the material.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
Can I stay at home during removal?
That depends: outdoor jobs don’t generally affect you. Indoors, the work area is sealed and out of use while we work.
What happens
We start by setting up and segregating the work area, then keep the material damp throughout. Before we leave, we explain what we did and what comes next. We plan outdoor jobs in Heathrow to finish before dark: in late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:20pm.

Helpful guides
Choosing the right option
Remove, or leave and manage? If the material is in good condition and won’t be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is normally right. Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
