Asbestos removal near North End
In homes, in North End as elsewhere, the usual materials are cement products, textured coatings and floor tiles. HSE treats work on these as non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed in most cases, which still means proper controls. From old floor tiles and black adhesive and materials found mid-project, we cover floor tiles, gutters and downpipes and flue pipes.
In North End, removal often involves flats, small gardens and limited access, so we plan parking, access and the route for the waste. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

The scope of asbestos removal
We are upfront about what’s included:
- Making good is normally a separate job
- Unidentified materials are tested before removal is planned
- Some jobs must be notified first, so the timing needs planning
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
What we deal with
- Garage and shed roofs
- Flue pipes
- Panels and boards
- Soffits (cement)
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Water tanks
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Gutters and downpipes
- Bitumen roof felt
- Artex and textured coatings
What we deal with in North End
Not all asbestos materials are equal: lagging and board release fibres far more readily than cement, so their removal is licensed.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Old waste on site
- Old cold water tanks
- Garage roof sheets
In older properties in North End, it’s often extensions and refits that contain asbestos, so we test before we plan.
Questions to ask before you book
- What paperwork you get
- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you’ll get a consignment note
- If the price includes VAT

How it works
On the day, we set up the work area first: barrier tape, signs and protection where needed, then keep the material damp throughout. On the day, we check the area and talk you through the plan first. We plan outdoor jobs in North End to finish before dark: in late December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, while in June it stays light until about 9:20pm.

What it costs

FAQs for North End
Is asbestos common in North End homes?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover North End and the area around Slade Green station?
Yes. Slade Green station is close to the centre of North End, and we cover the whole area.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then get advice.
How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.

Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
