How asbestos removal works in Limmo Peninsula

Higher-risk materials such as pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, which must be carried out by a contractor holding an HSE licence. We’ll explain what applies to your job in Limmo Peninsula. We often deal with water tanks, textured coatings and floor tiles, and typical jobs are cement water tanks in lofts and broken sheets in gardens.

In London neighbourhoods like Limmo Peninsula, garages and outbuildings are often reached through the house or a rear lane, so we plan how to get the waste out. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we will tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Should you do it yourself?

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Materials, one by one

Textured coatings

Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.

Water tanks and flues

Cement water tanks and flues are drained or disconnected first, then removed whole or in as few pieces as possible.

After the job

Keep the consignment note with your property records: it proves legal disposal.

To avoid problems in future:

  • Send photos of the material and the access
  • Tell us about parking and access
  • File the consignment note
  • Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone

Things not to do

Don’t jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

Don’t jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

How it works

As each piece comes out, it’s bagged or wrapped and labelled, ready to go to a permitted site. Before we leave, we explain what we did and what comes next. Late-December sunset in Limmo Peninsula is about 3:55pm, so we start outdoor work early in the day.

  1. Describe the material and send pictures
  2. If it hasn’t been identified, we sample it first
  3. We plan the job and send a written quote
  4. We remove the material with controls to keep fibres down
  5. We clean up, dispose of the waste legally and send the consignment note

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep the area clear of children and pets
  • Clear belongings, but leave the material alone
  • Let us know if something’s broken

Helpful guides

For landlords, agents and businesses

Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.

Why people call us in Limmo Peninsula

FAQs for Limmo Peninsula

Do you work near Custom House station?

Yes. Custom House station is about 0.8 miles east of Limmo Peninsula, and we cover both.

Do you work in Limmo Peninsula 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.

What’s the difference between a test and a survey?

Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is normally needed.

Where does the asbestos go?

It’s sealed, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you receive the consignment note.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.

What if my house is newer?

Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999.

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.
