Asbestos removal in Mapesbury
Should you do it yourself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
Asbestos removal in Mapesbury
If your builder has found suspect material in Mapesbury, work should stop there and people kept out. We can test it and, if needed, plan its removal. Whether it’s materials found mid-project and old cold water tanks, we cover cement soffits, floor tiles and flue pipes.
In areas like Mapesbury, outbuildings are often only reachable through a house or lane, so we plan how to get the waste out. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Looking after things afterwards
Unexpected finds are discussed with you before we carry on, as the method may need to change.
To avoid problems in future:
- Share any survey or test results
- Let neighbours know if work is near them
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Let us know where we can park
Avoid these
Asbestos never goes in ordinary bins or skips.
Ask any contractor how they’ll dispose of the waste.
Responsibilities for owners
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.

Mapesbury questions
Do you cover Mapesbury and the area around Wembley Stadium station?
Yes. Wembley Stadium station is close to the centre of Mapesbury, and we cover the whole area.
Do you work in Mapesbury despite London parking restrictions?
Yes, we work across London. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.
Where does the asbestos go?
It’s double-bagged or wrapped, labelled and taken to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, with a consignment note for your records.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
Yes, unless it’s already been tested. The right method depends on what the material is.

What we deal with in Mapesbury
Some owners remove visible asbestos before a sale or letting, although sound material can often stay.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Garage roof sheets
- Old floor tiles and black adhesive
- Broken sheets in gardens
- Loft water tanks
Older buildings in Mapesbury, near St Michael the Archangel or elsewhere, may have asbestos in later alterations rather than the original fabric, so we identify materials before planning removal.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether VAT is included
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- The method and controls
- What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof
What we do and do not cover
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
- Making good is normally a separate job
- Licensed materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must be removed by an HSE-licensed contractor
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.
