Asbestos removal near Mottingham
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. People often contact us about vinyl and thermoplastic tiles and textured coatings, involving cement roof sheets, floor tiles and gutters and downpipes.
Removal jobs around Mottingham often mean working in flats, back gardens and tight spaces, so we plan parking, access and the route for the waste. Every job comes with paperwork, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

What it might be made of
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement is the most common material we remove: roof sheets, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. It’s kept damp and removed whole where possible.
Textured coatings
Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole.
What affects the price in Mottingham
What drives the price:
- The category of work
- How much waste there is

There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
Photos that help

Common reasons for removal jobs in Mottingham
Old materials break down over time: roofs crack, coatings flake and tiles come loose, which is often when people decide to remove them.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Materials found mid-project
- Textured coatings
- Outbuildings with cement roofs
- Broken sheets in gardens
In older properties in Mottingham, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we identify materials before planning removal.
Before booking anyone
- Which laboratory analyses samples
- Suitable insurance for the work
- That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
- Waste disposal and the consignment note
FAQs for Mottingham
Do you work in Mottingham despite London parking restrictions?
We do. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it.
Do you cover Mottingham and the area around Grove Park station?
Yes. Grove Park station is about 0.7 miles west of Mottingham, and we cover both.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
The scope of asbestos removal
Worth knowing before you book:
- Notifiable work has to be notified before it starts, so the timing needs planning
- Bad weather can affect outdoor removal
- We don’t remove anything until it’s been identified
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before booking.
Common materials
- Garage and shed roofs
- Flue pipes
- Water tanks
- Soffits (cement)
- Bitumen roof felt
- Gutters and downpipes

Why choose us
- Homes, rented property and workplaces
- Identify first, remove only when needed
- Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
- Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations
