Asbestos removal near Manor House
You don’t always have to remove asbestos. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed, and we’ll say so. Typical materials include gutters and downpipes, textured coatings and flue pipes, and typical jobs are old cold water tanks and materials found mid-project.
In Manor House, 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, so you have a record.

Manor House: your questions answered
Do you work in Manor House 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 work near Harringay Green Lanes station?
Yes. Harringay Green Lanes station is close to the centre of Manor House, and we cover the whole area.
How quickly can you come out?
It depends on the job and our diary. You’ll get available dates with the quote.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job.
Does all asbestos have to be removed?
In many cases it can stay: sound material that won’t be disturbed can be left and managed. Keep a record and check it from time to time.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Manor House must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
If your business premises in Manor House were built before 2000, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
What it costs
The price of asbestos removal depends mainly on:
- Travel and parking
- The size of the job
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.

Can I do it myself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

Unexpected finds are discussed with you before we carry on, because the plan may need to change.
After we’ve finished:
- Tell us about any previous survey
- Tell us about parking and access
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Send photos of the material and the access
Don’ts
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste, and ask for the consignment note.
