  • Written quotes that say what’s included
  • Jobs planned to HSE guidance
  • Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it

We remove asbestos from homes, rented property and commercial buildings across Ram Lane: garage roofs, flues, water tanks, Artex and floor tiles among them. Each job follows HSE guidance, and the waste goes to a permitted site. Typical jobs include Artex before plastering and old cold water tanks, involving flue pipes, floor tiles and cement roof sheets.

Common situations in older properties include:

  • Cement water tanks in lofts

Choosing an asbestos contractor

How it works

As each piece comes out, it’s bagged or wrapped and labelled, ready to go to a permitted site. Our team uses the right protective equipment, and use controls to keep dust down. In winter, the light goes in Ram Lane by about 3:50pm, so outdoor jobs start early.

  1. Start with photos, the postcode and any existing reports
  2. We identify the material and work out whether the job is licensed, notifiable or non-licensed
  3. We quote in writing, including the waste
  4. On the agreed date we set up the work area and remove the material carefully
  5. We clean the area and send the consignment note

How to prepare

  • Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
  • Mention any damage before we arrive
  • Ensure pets and children are elsewhere

Helpful guides

Prices and what affects them

Prices vary with:

  • Location, parking and any London charges
  • How much there is
  • How much waste there is
  • How easy it is to reach

Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.

Helping us quote

Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:

  • A clear close-up
  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • Visible markings
  • Approximate dimensions

To get a quote, fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

Doing it yourself?

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

For businesses and landlords in Ram Lane

Tanks and flues are disconnected first, then removed with minimal breakage.

Asbestos cement

Breaking or cutting cement releases fibres, so we unfix and lower it rather than breaking it.
