What happens

We start by setting up and segregating the work area, and keep the material wet as we work. Unexpected finds are discussed with you first before carrying on. We plan outdoor jobs in Mill Hill to finish before dark: that means by about 3:55pm in December, or about 9:20pm in June.

  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

Getting ready

  • Ensure we can get to the area
  • Tell us about anything that’s already damaged
  • Keep children and pets away on the day

How to get a quote

Tell us about the material, its location and your plans. Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.

Helpful guides

After we have finished in Mill Hill

Unexpected finds are discussed with you before we carry on, because the plan may need to change.

If asbestos stays in the building:

  • Let us know where we can park
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Plan any replacement work before the removal date
  • Photos of the material and the route in help

What to avoid

Don’t start building work before asbestos the work will disturb has been dealt with.

Do not jet-wash, sand, drill or cut asbestos materials.

What it costs

When we quote, we look at:

  • The size of the job
  • The type of material and its condition
  • Access to the area
  • Parking and access charges

Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.

What to photograph

When you send photos, these help most:

  • Street parking nearby
  • Cracks or breaks
  • An overall view
  • A close-up from a safe distance

Not sure what you need? Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749 and describe the problem, and we will advise.

Options to consider in Mill Hill

Should it come out? If the material is in good condition and won’t be disturbed, leaving it can be the safer and cheaper option; if it’s damaged or in the way of work, removal is normally right. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

Why us?

  • Waste taken to a permitted site with a consignment note
  • Covering London and the South East
  • Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone
  • Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations

Mill Hill: your questions answered

Could my house in Mill Hill contain asbestos?

It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Mill Hill may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Can you work in Mill Hill with London’s parking rules?

We do. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.

Do you give written quotes?

Always: you get the scope and price in writing.

What if my house is newer?

Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.

Do you work on commercial premises?

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

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice.

Doing it yourself?

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

What we deal with in Mill Hill

Asbestos was used in building products until it was banned in 1999, so buildings across Greater London built or refurbished before 2000 can contain it.

Typical jobs in Mill Hill include:

  • Debris left from a previous job
  • Artex ceilings before renovation
  • Old floor tiles and black adhesive
  • Flue pipes, gutters and downpipes

In older properties in Mill Hill, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we identify materials before planning removal.

What to look for in a quote

  • Which areas and materials are covered
  • Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
