Helpful guides
After we have finished in Kentish Town
If the job is licensed, it ends with a four-stage clearance by a UKAS-accredited analyst and a certificate of reoccupation.

Things not to do
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
Never pressure-wash, sand or cut asbestos.
Doing it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
FAQs for Kentish Town
Do you work in Kentish Town despite London parking restrictions?
We do. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do you cover Kentish Town and the area around Kentish Town West station?
Yes. Kentish Town West station is close to the centre of Kentish Town, and we cover the whole area.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area involved in the job.
What does removal cost?
Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. We quote each job individually.
Can you quote from photos?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.
Is asbestos dangerous?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is usually needed.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.
Responsibilities for owners
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
If your business premises in Kentish Town were built before 2000, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
Why people call us in Kentish Town
Refurbishment and demolition are the most common reasons for removal: anything the work would disturb should be dealt with first.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Debris left from a previous job

- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
