Neasden questions
Can you work in Neasden with London’s parking rules?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Is asbestos common in Neasden homes?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Neasden can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes, of course. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, so identifying it before work is important.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
What does licensed work mean?
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. Cement and textured coatings generally are not licensed.
How asbestos removal works in Neasden
Every removal job in Neasden is planned first: the method, the controls, the waste and any notification needed. From garage roof sheets and floor tiles before a new floor, we cover cement roof sheets, cement soffits and water tanks and more.
In places like Neasden, outbuildings are often only reachable through a house or lane, which affects how the waste is carried out. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.
