Asbestos removal in Kingsbury

Which option is right?

Remove, or leave and manage? Sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay; if it’s damaged or the work will disturb it, removal makes sense. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

How asbestos removal works in Kingsbury

Asbestos removal starts with knowing what the material is. If it hasn’t been tested, we sample it first, because the method depends on the material. Typical jobs include sheds, outbuildings and lean-tos and cement flues and gutters, including floor tiles, textured coatings and water tanks.

In Kingsbury, removal often involves flats, small gardens and limited access, so access and parking are planned carefully. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, for your records.

After we’ve finished in Kingsbury

Once the material is removed, the area is cleaned, and you get the consignment note showing where the waste went.

To avoid problems in future:

  • Clear the area around the work, without disturbing the asbestos
  • Book the replacement before removal
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Share any survey or test results

What to avoid

Deal with asbestos before the builders start.

Don’t sweep, vacuum or brush up broken asbestos debris.

Step by step

Unexpected materials mean we pause and discuss, before changing the plan. We begin by confirming exactly what we’re doing. We plan outdoor jobs in Kingsbury to finish before dark: that means by about 3:55pm in December, or about 9:20pm in June.

  1. Get in touch with the details of the job
  2. We work out what category the work falls into
  3. We book the work and notify if required
  4. On the day we set up, remove and bag the material
  5. We dispose of the waste legally and send the paperwork

How to prepare

  • Let neighbours know if the work is near them
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Tell us about anything that is already damaged

A closer look at the materials

Bitumen and felt

Bitumen felts can contain asbestos, which is usually well bound.

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement releases fibres when broken or cut, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.

What’s included, and what isn’t

To be clear about the scope:

  • Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
  • We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified
  • Some jobs must be notified first, which affects the start date

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Kingsbury questions

Do you work in Kingsbury despite London parking restrictions?

Yes, we work across London. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Do you cover Kingsbury and the area around Hendon station?

Yes. Hendon station is about 1.5 miles east of Kingsbury, and we cover both.

How quickly can you come out?

That depends on the work and current bookings. You will get available dates with the quote.

Can asbestos be left in place?

Often it can stay: if it’s in good condition and out of the way, it can stay. Record it and keep an eye on it.

Will I get the price in writing?

Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.

Do you test before removing asbestos in Kingsbury?

Yes, if it hasn’t been tested: the way it’s removed depends on the material.

Do you work on commercial premises?

We do. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.

Could my home contain asbestos?

If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.

Doing it yourself?

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

If you run a business from older premises in Kingsbury, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Kingsbury must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
