Asbestos removal near Lisson Grove
Asbestos removal near Lisson Grove
Every removal job in Lisson Grove is planned first: we work out the method, the controls, the waste and whether the work must be notified. From Artex before plastering and broken sheets in gardens, we deal with floor tiles, water tanks and flue pipes.
In Lisson Grove, removal often involves flats, small gardens and limited access, so we plan parking, access and the route for the waste. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, for your records.

What’s included, and what isn’t
It’s worth knowing what asbestos removal does and doesn’t cover:
- We do not remove anything until it’s been identified
- Lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work
- Some jobs must be notified first, which affects the start date
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before you book.

- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Bitumen roof felt
- Garage and shed roofs
- Panels and boards
- Flue pipes
- Water tanks

Which option is right?
HSE advises the public not to remove asbestos themselves, and the waste still has to go to a permitted site with the right paperwork. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

What happens next
File the waste paperwork safely: it shows the asbestos was disposed of legally.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Send photos of the material and the access
- Book the replacement before removal
- Move belongings away, but leave the asbestos alone
- Keep the waste paperwork safe afterwards
What to avoid
Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.
Don’t let anyone remove asbestos without asking how the waste will be disposed of, and ask for the consignment note.

Bitumen and felt
Some old roof felts and bitumen products contain asbestos, which is generally well bound.

Gas appliances must be disconnected by a Gas Safe registered engineer before a flue is removed.
Responsibilities for owners
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
If you manage or own a block in Lisson Grove, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.

Prices and what affects them
The price of asbestos removal depends mainly on:
- What the material is and its state
- How easy it is to reach
- The category of work
- The size of the job
Doing several things in one visit can help, such as testing several materials at once.
Sending photos
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them without disturbing anything:
- A rough size or measurement
- The access route
- An overall view
- A close-up from a safe distance
Photos from a safe distance help: do not touch the material, just send them through our quote form.

Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Material, amount, condition, access and waste all affect the price. Every job gets a written quote.
